[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um no I didn't. I get the point of the PP which isn't the point of the previous 20+ pages.

Hardy' scores are fine-- not great but not horrible. Engaged Principal who has implemented differentiation. Nice small school size. Clearly there are kids who are engaged and working hard. What there isn't are IB kids. Not feeder kids who are proficient (plenty of those) but IB.

Not hard to understand. [/quote]

Fine.  You didn't seem to acknowledge that kids prepared through feeder schools are academically solid students.  Now you do acknowledge that fact; which also means that you would probably acknowledge that proficient peers are probably [b]the best way to attract kids living in Hardy's neighborhood to attend that school. [/b] But as for your unrelated point (but relevant to the thread) -- how many neighborhood kids living in the neighborhood attend Hardy -- I don't think we've seen that data.[/quote]

but not the only way, as percent IB is also a concern - whether thats because of convenience for socializing, or discomfort with a racial mix with few whites, I can't say, but it seems to be a real  concern.  Plus, while official numbers on IB are not available yet, offiicial numbers on feeder school percents may never be available, so IB % may have to be the proxy.  I would assume that at such point as Hardy is 50% IB it can be assumed that a very large % of OOB are from the Hardy feeders. Is that incorrect? [/quote]
