because they get split by school, or something else?


They are basically the same neighborhood (a big chunk of the elementary school), same community pool, community association that does everything together, yet they're breaking it apart. One option even breaks up the Town of GP too, which is weird, bc it's such a tiny municipality. Option D will not sit well with that area


Oh no, the same pool? That will be chaos.

Positives: VME wins the real estate lotto.

Negatives: worst option for FARMS rates at Woodward and WJ. Worst option for current WJ zone.



I don't think you realize how bad it looks for you that you are afraid of those FARMS rates. Are you really that scared of low income families?


I'm anonymous. I don't care how it looks.

Scared no. But high FARMS schools are NOT good schools. I want my kid to have a good school. This is consistent with academic literature that when FARMS crosses about 20%, it's a genuine decline in education outcomes for the broader school community. I want poor served along with middle class and the rich. I don't want to favor poor for sake of being poor or rich for sake of being rich. Need to educate everyone. Push up the elite of them all regardless of what family they come from. We need doctors, engineers, etc etc etc
Sorry not everyone is capable or even resources. We also need good plumbers


If we need good plumbers, tell your kids to become plumbers.

Or, learn to DIY.

No worries, they will fix that with the upcoming elementary boundary study


They are fine at elementary and middle school actually. It's the high school they are not fine with. That community will rally. I have friends there who are up in arms


Wow. That's pretty disgusting. I hope for their children's sakes they do Option D because being this fragile is not good for them.

Karen enters the room with disgust. Option D sucks for other reasons. Nobody wants to turn a good school to another crappy DCC ghetto school

Community building sucks in this community. Nobody values it.

Negative: lots of split articulation. Kind of long but rides for some option.

Let's be real, you all know a 30% FARMS rate is fine, but you also know it means it will reduce the real estate differential for your neighborhood compared with the 40-50% FARMS school and you can't tolerate losing 5% of your $5 million in wealth

30% is worse than my current situation and my current situation is barely acceptable. So no, I'm not ok with it. Sure it sucks to lose home equity, but having a cruddy school on top of it? No thanks

It's their parents who raise wild animals.

Sounds like the problem is you

Theyre lucky to have me who gives a crap. Not a parent who doesn't care to get their act together to put enough food on their kid's belly before producing another kid
