[quote=Anonymous]We have a child IB at a feeder school, and have an 8th grader at Deal as well.  The resentment expressed towards OOB kids as the cause of any problems is really offensive.  The OOB kids I know (and both my children have friends that lotteried in) are great kids.  Yes the school is crowded.  The entitlement on here is amazing.  The PP suggesting suing the school to exclude OOB kids doesn’t seem to realize that she did not purchase a right to a particular public school with her house.  The city can and has changed boundaries and can and has changed rules that control who has a right to a school.  All students that fall within the outlined rules have equal rights to a school, they met the criteria and they are in, just like my kids that live within the boundaries met the currently applicable rules and they are in.

The system needs to do something  to address overcrowding but all the currently IB families should realize that if the district takes up changes they could negatively impact any group and we should all work together and not villanize those that have worked within the rules to obtain the right to attend.

11-14 is a tough age group, probably the hardest.  [/quote]
