[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in-bounds for Bancroft and have one child at MV and another starting next year.  We love our neighborhood, we visit the Bancroft playground often and have play dates in the neighborhood regularly.

For us, the progressive and innovative nature of MV (the expeditionary learning, the solutions-oriented and enthusiastic culture, the inclusive sense of community) have sold us.  I'm excited that more of my neighbors are happy with Bancroft.  More good options helps everyone.  But I don't know any families from Mount Pleasant that are leaving MV.[/quote]

It sounds like some Mount Pleasant families may be leaving MV; see up-thread. But the more important question is what new parents are likely to do each year from now on, especially at PK3. It's likely that parents will follow a school from a convenient location to an inconvenient one if they like the school enough and have invested in it. It's somewhat less likely that parents will choose an inconvenient school from the beginning when their IB option is a good one.

For the poster who says Mount Pleasant parents are jerks, please don't take any of this thread as bragging about Bancroft or criticizing Mundo Verde. Bancroft has come a long way but still has its challenges. That's why it's so exciting to see the increased IB interest in the school. It's great to see that Bancroft is on an upward trajectory.
