Then there becomes less "community pull" to have that class at all, so the class is far less likely to be reinstated in the future (even if the teacher capable has been retained to teach alternate classes, and that does not always occur). Students with capability/interest in those schools are left out in the cold.

The prior post about utilizing virtual to ensure access would be one way to start to right this particular ship.

That premise really depends on what is the class.

The class if French 5 that is being dropped. But regardless, it doesn't appear that anyone has this problem. QO is just picking a random number to ensure that they don't have to offer it.
