[quote=Anonymous]Two recurring themes on here that don't make sense: (1) The animosity that non-Ludlow Taylor Hill families have toward LT families who want something better. Don't you understand that people have tried with LT and it's not working? And don't you understand that, by helping either make LT better or get rid of it altogether, you're helping yourself by making the Hill better? (2) The animosity that everyone has toward people living around the new SWS who are agitating for proximity. The mood seems to be, "well, you're doing well enough financially -- why should you get a nice neighborhood school?" I have a feeling that if a citywide school (like SWS) was placed in the middle of the poorest neighborhood in Ward 8, but kids from those neighborhoods were only allowed in through the lottery, then people on DCUM would be singing a different tune about what's fair with regard to proximity.[/quote]
