[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got into ITS and low on the wait list for Haynes. Thoughts from black families??  Should we take the spot at ITS or wait for Haynes which do families of color think is better for a black kid with mild sped needs. [/quote]

Black family at ITS here. We absolutely love the school. We didn’t even list Haynes as we didn’t see it much differently than KIPP. In fact, I listed a KIPP school during lottery. Why don’t you like about KIPP that you think Haynes has? FWIW, the middle school principal at ITS came from Haynes. While he has never said anything negative about Haynes, he made it clear there are differences amongst the schools, particularly with [b]social emotional and student-led curriculum.[/b] [/quote]

Another black family--I don't know anyone at Haynes, but I've known black families at ITS.  If I had a choice, that would be it.  My child attends a different school, but I follow ITS on social media and like a lot of what is posted.  I like the bolded aspects of their curriculum too.[/quote]
