[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Academically kids will likely perform the same wherever they are no matter the school rating[/b]. The families we know that opted out of Lewis did so because they had a child that may fall in with the wrong crowd. Studious kids who are driven and have high grades aren't going to be influenced by bad behavior from other students.[/quote]

People like to tell themselves this but it isn't true.  Students rise to the level of their peers - and when their peers are not good, then academic kids will not rise.  [/quote]

It's true for the kids we personally know who have graduated from Lewis and a few who are currently there.

I understand not wanting your kid to go, but just move if you don't like the boundary changes. All this melting down on DCUM is getting silly.[/quote]

DP. What a condescending and ignorant comment.

I hope you get redistricted. They are going a lot bigger than people think.

What's condescending about what is written?

If our house gets redistricted and we don't like the schools, we will move. It's really not that big of a deal.[/quote]
