[quote=Anonymous][quote]Would they be opposed to rebranding Roosevelt? Absolutely yes. Would they be opposed to making it a stronger comprehensive school with some specialized programming to keep neighborhood kids at the school, maybe not. Is there a middle ground of an academy that is open to all that arrive with and maintain a minimum proficiency level, perhaps. Is there a pathway to provide better programming for the neighborhood? Is there a way to get communities talking to each other about how they can collaborate to build on the schools history and turn it into a destination school? I think those gentlemen want a strong Roosevelt but they have a different understanding of what that means. How do we bridge that divide?[/quote] This is the right perspective. They want the school to be better than it was, but they want to ensure that "better" doesn't mean exclusive. That's what gentrification has done for the neighborhood.[/quote]
