[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what many of you are saying is that LT would be more appealing to you if there were a GT program (ahh how I hate to equate SES with cognitive capacity but for the sake of understandable jargon I will use it).  What you are also saying is that currently the population at LT is not in need of a GT program.  Why would a school implement a program that is not intended to meet the needs of CURRENT students?  If you want a "GT" program at LT you need to enroll your children there.  Pedagogical decisions are made to serve existing populations.  Who's to say the new principal would not implement these programs if there were the demand for them?  The demand does not exist so the programs don't exist.  Get it?[/quote]
Yes, but it would give Ludlow-Taylor a competitive advantage over other similar schools, and help the school serve the population in the neighborhood better, resulting in more people attending the school, resulting in more funding. Everyone in the neighborhood with kids can easily enroll them, so their interests serve as, if not demand, then a very close approximation of demand. [/quote]
