[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All Hardy feeder schools have great principals and involved parents. It is naive (and shows a poor knowledge of dynamics at these schools) to think that ES feeder school will allow new OB entrants in 5th grade to keep enrollment high. OB slots are given in lower grades, not at higher grades. This is what it is safe and considerate to state that kids from feeder schools are academically stronger, as most of them have spent at least 4 years in one of the feeder ES.[/quote] School budgets are based on the # of pupils in the school. None of the schools will leave $ on the table if they have space for a few more 5th graders.[/quote] You certainly are not from one of the ES feeder school. Untrue. They increase number of classes at lower grades. As much as Principals might have wanted to do so, parents would not allow it, and would most certainly leave in larger numbers at the end of 4th grade, making the problem worse. [/quote]
