[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the Lewis parent- very glad your child is thriving there.  I have good friends whose child experienced a lot of bullying at Key but is also doing well at Lewis.

I know you can only definitively speak for yourself but why do you think the 200 or 300 kids zoned for Lewis transfer out? What are they missing about Lewis that you're seeing present there?[/quote]

They transfer out because they don't want their kids to go to school with poor brown kids. [/quote]

A neighbor who proudly displayed the "love is love, science is real, all are welcome" flag in her front yard sold her house and moved the family deep within a 'safer' school pyramid, all based on the prospect of her children having to move out of WSHS and attend Lewis.  You have to help the poor brown kids, until it can potentially impact your own kids.  [/quote]

Or, maybe she didn’t want her kids in an IB program. Maybe she wanted them to take AP classes. Maybe she didn’t want to have to drive thru the mixing bowl multiple times a week. Maybe she didn’t want her kids to lose all their friends.

Not everything is about race. [/quote]
