[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In boundary parents care about one number, the IB number which they view as an indication that their neighbors and peers are voting with their feet, manifesting increased confidence in Hardy. They don't care about the feeder number, which is inflated by OOB students who would probably choose to attend Hardy anyway because it likely is a better alternative than the school they would otherwise have been assigned to.[/quote] I would argue that the IB percentage is the speedometer, not the gas pedal. It's not the reason that IB parents are opting out of Hardy, it's the evidence they are. The reasons they opt out are complex, and probably different for every family, but in short, they have better options.[/quote]
