[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At a certain point, you need to take responsibility for your own decisions and just get your kids out of the bad school in which you placed them.   [/quote]

Parents are not leaving the school. They are protesting, because they believe things can improve. Also not everyone is having a bad experience.[/quote]

Oh really. Then why is it P St saw fit to offer 44 PK4 and 60 Kindergarten seats? 40 1st grade seats and 20 2nd grade seats? Sorry but those are not the numbers of a school with good retention.

This makes no sense. The school doesn’t know how many people are leaving by  lottery date. Therefore the lottery seats are not a direct reflection of people leaving. [/quote]

They reflect an estimate of how many people will leave, including those who have already left by late winter lottery time. If retention is good, why would P St think they could fit 44 new PK4s and 60 Ks into their building?  Have they planned an expansion and gotten that approved? Oh no, they have not. Are they planning more PK4 and K classes than before, perhaps? Where do the extra 40 1st graders fit into the building, along with 20 new 2nd graders? Seems like a lot of growth, if retention is good. That's 164 new kids. Please fill us in, is MV expanding?[/quote]
