[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having attended last night, I always find it shocking how entitled and antagonist parents are. This is a free option that works for many families who are lucky enough to get in. If people are so skeptical and openly disinterested then why don’t people just quietly move on? [/quote]

+100 Latin is an absolute gem for those lucky enough to get in. If it makes you feel better to tear it down, go ahead, but it's been wonderful for our kids.[/quote]

What I'm reading in these comments doesn't seem entitled or antagonistic.  it tells me that Latin isn't doing as good a job as they hope in communicating about their mission to prospective families.  I'm one of the PP who said the format of the open house was a total bust but that the approach of the school seems like a good one. [b]Maybe they don't worry about it too much because of their long wait lists [/b]but some of this feedback could be helpful to them.

and, without a lot of visibility into the other properties considered for their second campus, it does feel bizarre to have the second site so close to the first when they endeavor to be accessible to the whole city. [/quote]

It's this. Latin knows it will be number 1 on almost everyone's wait list anyway so they don't have to do much at these open houses.[/quote]

Really and that is good in your book?  And that justifies how awful the open house was?

Make no effort to provide important information and content to families at an open house because they have a waitlist?

Well, Latin won’t be on our list.  So that’s 2 families there along with the long time educator.  But I highly doubt it’s an n=2
