[quote=Anonymous]I think perhaps it because perception is a key driver in school success. If there is the perception that a school is good, then parents who care about their children's education will try (within financial limitations) to move to that district. Part of Whitman's success is attracting families so for those parents, retaining the school's reputation is important. Similarly, parents of Einstein students want to highlight that children can achieve there as well. The more involved parents whose children attend, the better the student population. My son's preschool teacher has two children who went to Einstein. One is at Harvard med school and the other is at Johns Hopkin's med. She stressed to me and my husband (we are currently slated for Einstein and intently watching scores, demographics, student experience, etc. to the extent possible) that we should get involved and that while we may need to be more attentive, our son can get a good education there. I want to hear about parent experiences (pluses and minuses) so please keep the thread going.[/quote]
