A Cherrydale centered PTA with participants who did not have students attending the school.

Further, that Cherrydale focused PTA were lottery parents; do think of the Rosslyn PTA members were advocating to the school board to remove lottery families, there would not have been a similar response?

I thought that most of the people from the ASFS PTA were based in Lyon Village, not Cherrydale. So why would you call it a Cherrydale centered PTA? I think there was only one PTA officer from Cherrydale.

Every student at the school now is a lottery/Team transfer--next year it will be different. Beyond that point all students are the same value to the school, whether you are a Key, Taylor, or Jamestown student.

What is also really interesting is all the advocacy that was done for Rosslyn by people who live outside Rosslyn that goes uncredited. Nevertheless, a handful of zealots spread half-truths and outright fake news to incite people to tear the school apart.

Either way, it’s all very boring.

Isn't that what Rosslyn PTA members want to do now? From what I've read on this thread, they seem to hate them all and want them removed from the school?

I've heard the new PTA is advocating for removing current students from the school to reduce the capacity strain.

I assume you have a source for that information and aren't posting rank speculation?

This makes no sense. There will be a boundary change soon, even if nothing happens with Key because of Reed opening in 2021. No kids are going to be "removed" before a boundary change by a PTA. As if.

We are so far into stupid territory now, I feel like I lose brain cells every time I open this thread.

This is why they need to draw those boundaries now, so we can all stop wasting our time with this insanity.

No, that just gives us two rounds of stupid on ASFS. Now and in two years when they refine it before Reed opens.

That's why the entire boundary needs to be done for 2019. No reason to extend the pain.

I've heard the new PTA was taking into account the concerns of those kids at Turnberry Towers and the Odyssey who were feeling a little cramped at "their" school.

That will mean the boundaries to be implemented for 2021 will be based on projections that are three years out of date at that point. They have been very explicit on this, any boundaries drawn now for 2021 will be checked again in 2020 to make sure they are still appropriate at that time. Again with the stupid.
