[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My best friend's husband teaches at Tubman and he is flat out disheartened by it.[/quote] Based on the conversation on this thread, the admin. at Tubman could be proactive and plan some outreach to families in the area.[/quote] Not disagreeing, but given everything on their plate might not be a priority. After all, they're at capacity and probably growing, and have had a trajectory of success over the past few years with students they have. Due to that success they've been recognized and able to access resources. So from their perspective, what is to gain to make that a priority, versus investing limited time/resources in their existing students? I have no inside knowledge, just trying speculate. It's not like they're Garrison, Seaton, etc. who are struggling academically or enrollment-wise, and the last thing they need to do would be to alter their plans to accomodate a bunch of high-maintenance high SES parents. If they enroll, great, but why the need to perform outreach other than to boost test scores?[/quote]
