[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Exactly. Listen maybe in a few years Drew will be acceptable but in 2019 or 2020 most of the kids in my neighborhood South of the Pike potentially being zoned Drew will start K. We are not willing to take a risk on our kids entire elementary school experience. And yes guess what Nauck deserves an amazing school. Nauck doesn’t want a bunch of lily white UMC. They want an amazing school for themselves. They have a great principal that will do her very best and has a proven track record. [/quote]

How convenient for you that you know exactly what people in Nauck want and what they consider to be an amazing school. [/quote]

LOL. Since I've lived here for a number of years, I feel qualified to say that "Nauck" wants a quality education for neighborhood kids just like everyone else in the world. The Nauck Civic Assn wants a neighborhood school, but I certainly don't get the impression they have any thought at all to whether it is  "lily white". They care about student performance, period. And have done a lot of work in that regard. Yes, Nauck is culturally and historically AA but there are lily whites round these parts, lemme tell you. :) I've never been made to feel unwelcome. Quite the opposite. A "bunch of lily white UMC" is important to the school's future success and everyone here knows it.[/quote]
