[u]Problems with Administration[/u] - too many people who have done the same job the same way for too many years and can't adapt. Add in the fact the school system grew in that same time frame but didn't grow the people or talent to control it and all of a sudden they realize they are in a mess.  They are only now trying to climb out. It's been about 5 years.

[u]Don't tell you about transfers soon enough[/u]. - see "Problems with Administration".  The guy who handles the actual transfer request is super nice and helpful but he can only do so much.

[u]Parents don't know how bad it is until they leave.[/u] - (this is a whole explanation by itself)

Regarding #3, no, I don't think that is a whole explanation by itself. It's not substantive and I can't evaluate it. My son was in a crappy daycare before we found childcare we loved. It would be very easy for me to state why we're happier with his current daycare. I would not simply say "We didn't know how bad it was until we left" to a concerned parent who was considering it without adding some explanation.  [/quote]
