[quote=Anonymous]Shutting down LT just so that you rid the school of OB students and reopen with a fresh opportunity to attract IB students is a seriously messed up and ugly idea. If people that are inboundry at LT want to send their kid, then they should go there.  The fact that most of the kids are OB is not some new thing-- you surely bought in to the neighborhood knowing that was the way it was.

Brent has changed from being predominantly OB to being predominantly IB over the course of a few years without displacing OB students.  There is no reason that the LT IB neighborhood can't do the same.   The fact is that if those OB students hadn't kept LTs numbers up, the school would have been sold off to some condo developer years ago.  Maybe show a bit of appreciation for the fact that those OB students have enabled you to have a school that you can choose to walk your children to.  Geez-- they are kids!! And their parents are sending their kids OB to LT because they believe that is the best thing for the family rather than just accepting what their neighborhood school provides.  Isn't that what parents are supposed to do??  It's not like they are doing it to spite you.  Again, it actually has helped the LT community because if it weren't for them the school would have been closed long ago.[/quote]
