[quote=Anonymous]I do think the early LT IB families had a similar mindset as the early Brent Neighbors. However, they had a tougher row to hoe. You think Cobbs is not gentrification-friendly? The principal before her was outspoken about his not wanting to educate white children from the neighborhood - telling them they should send their children elsewhere. Also, the teachers and principal saw what happened to Brent as more IB families attended - they saw spaces for OOB kids shrinking and more alarming was they saw black teachers and principal replaced by white teachers and principal. This set them up to be more defensive than the Brent principal and teachers were; the LT staff were able to point concretely to changes they perceived as not beneficial.[/quote]
