[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was plenty of community interest and involvement a few years back and it has died a slow death because the principal has zero interest in engaging the neighborhood.

The opposite happened at Brent, and it made all the difference.  Without the school meeting the neighborhood half way, Brent could never have made the amazing turnaround it has (although I'm not sure it ever had as little community support as LT has).

Every in-bounds family I know with real skin in the game who started with kids in the early childhood program at LT has since left, many with hard feelings about being unwelcome and very negative experiences with the principal.

Until she's gone and replaced by someone willing to engage the neighborhood, there will be no Brent Miracle at LT.[/quote]

+1000 Everyone has to do their part..  EVERYONE  It can't just be a handful of cheerleading families, the school itself has to be supportive and willing to change, and there has to be a critical mass across ALL involved.[/quote]
