But won't Hearst feel left out?
Um, no, because the H is Hearst.
Hearst boosters are the funniest. You know the type: the kid that clearly wasn't invited to the party but then shows up And pretends to know everyone, constantly talking about how he was so looking forward to getting drunk tonight.
Which school do you prefer:
School A:
29% advanced with 47% proficient in reading
12% advanced with 56% proficient in math
7% ESL
35% FARMS
287 kids
57% black, 28% white, 4% Asian, 8% Latino
18% in boundary
School B:
40% advanced with 36% proficient in reading
16% advanced with 63% proficient in math
7% ESL
16% FARMS
334 kids
37% black, 47% white, 7% Asian, 8% Latino
38% in boundary
I contend that if you strictly prefer school A, then you're not honestly objective and are instead looking for a way to justify your bias.
Not only is Hearst not in the same league as JKLM (for better or worse, whatever) but it's not even the H in the comical list above.
Let me guess, you are a Janney parent.

No way Hearst will be in the JKLM league until it becomes an overwhelmingly neighborhood school.
Really? And what is the reason for this? Because it can't be a good school unless all upper NW high-SES white kids go there?
I actually agree that Hearst is not in the "JKLM league" but the difference is I see that as a positive for the school. Not overcrowded, not huge, not a bunch of rich white kids. All good things in my book.

So weird for an elementary school to have a ruling class.

At Janney, the ruling class (25 percent of the school) acts this way. The rest are fine.
