Hardy is NOT 8% IB-Hardy's 6th grade has 34 INB and another 15 or so OOB from IB Feeders, which makes the IB for 6th grader around 25-40% depending on what you consider OOB kids from IB feeders as. [/quote]

Yes, but it seems that everyone would agree that it's silly to consider OOB resident students who come up through a feeder school as "in boundaries."  Of course, they're pretty likely to stay in the system.  The whole issue is how to attract in boundary residents who historically have refused to attend their "neighborhood" middle school.[/quote]

Eaton parent here.

I think it's great news if students from a feeder school continue onto Hardy, regardless of where they live. It's about solid elementary school preparation not about address. It would be great if larger cohorts of kids who have come through elementary school together with a similar educational background move up to MS to continue together. Makes perfect sense to me.

Seems to me that the "real" IB crowd will never be satisfied.  If it's all about addresses, they really won't like the Eaton crowd either even though our kids are well prepared and have great test scores-too many zip codes in our directory.  [/quote]
