[quote=Anonymous]1/3 of the kids at Payne do not come from the homeless shelter. This is wildly inaccurate and actually harmful to parents who are considering Payne. And Payne isn't struggling to keep families past K. The 2011/12 school year was the first year that "gentrifiers" tried Payne. Of the 6 or 7 families in preschool and preK, all but maybe one were very happy atleast for that school year. And about half are staying for the next grade. I don't know if any are thinking of Payne longterm, but not because Payne is bad. I think a lot of parents in the less popular schools play the lottery every year and then weigh options. My child was at Payne and the school was safe and orderly. We would have stayed but are moving our child to be with his sibling. [/quote]
