[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When will eaton students to Hardy?[/quote]

Unfortunately next autumn. They have been so unkind to the school that nobody wants them here. [/quote]

Well this is just not fair. You mean to tell me that the parents of 2nd graders (wouldn't that be the first group affected by the shift?) have all universally panned Hardy and been rude and dismissive? I find that very hard to believe.  What about those of us in the neighborhood who haven't even yet had a chance to send our kids to Eaton and plan to do so as well as plan to go to Hardy? We spent our money on a house in the area specifically for the schools. Our child is not yet school-aged. I've never said an unkind thing about Hardy and now that it looks like we will be zoned for Hardy going forward, that is where my child will be going because I simply do not have the money for private school or the ability to schelp my kid all over the city for a charter school.[/quote]

I would not give up so easily.  The move from Deal to Hardy will really hurt Eaton because more IB parents will peel off earlier.  I think the single biggest weakness at Eaton is that the parents are sheep.  They do not advocate for the school.  Eaton got redistricted because the parents let it happen.  Janney parents would have risen quickly in opposition to such a move.  Don't give up.  The PTA just needs to do dome soul searching and toughen up.  It makes me sad that this happened.  I loved sending my children to Eaton, but I know I would not do so if it had fed into Hardy.
