I think in this social media age we are dealing with parents and kids want to feel sought after when they visit the school. It's a game I don't think Elder will play. Parents/kids want to feel "special", and Elder is not going to kiss their butt to get them to go to the school. I think there is some merit to that, BUT at the end of the day you're seeing enrollment drop. I believe Elder had one of the biggest open houses they ever had and had a really good number of shadows. You got to ask yourself where did we go wrong? You don't want to kiss butt and make kids/parents feel "special" and "wanted" fine, but don't cry when enrollment continues to drop and teachers and coaches eventually have to lose their jobs. If the 175 number is true that is not good yet again. It's not terrible, but it's not good.
