[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am dumbfounded that educated adults would think this about elementary students. We are talking about Ludlow Taylor. There are no pregnant children. There is no talk of gangs. The 5th graders are into My Little Ponies, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Get real & get a life besides slandering the work (sweat, blood, & tears) of the adults and children at LT. We don't cheat. We play, educate, create. [/quote] Dumbfounded, sounds tiring. Fabulous, you play, educate, create. So tell us this, why LT is around 3% white (generous estimate) from K up in a catchment area that's at least two-thirds white? The problem is bad mouthing? I assure you that we aren't leaving because of bad mouthing. We're going because we don't want our kid, who travels to Europe a couple times a year to visit relatives, speaks a European language, lives in a 800K house, plays Suzuki violin like a champ and has her own Mac, to stick out like a sore thumb after K. Principal Cobbs may have a respectable degree, but she's no fan of well-educated IB parents. Let's modify the job ad, shall we? [i]Gentrification-friendly principal sought for Ludlow-Taylor school. Needs degree from an elite college or graduate school program. Must be willing to crack down on cheating on standardized tests and local addresses, and eager to work with a diverse group of in-boundary parents to build a true neighborhood school in record time. [/i] [/quote] Good luck with that.[/quote]
