[quote=Anonymous]https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/trafficandcommuting/as-school-systems-grapple-with-overcrowding-parents-wonder-why-enrollment-projections-are-so-off/2018/09/09/7f8abda4-95cd-11e8-810c-5fa705927d54_story.html?utm_term=.e5e9a6177389 One thing that jumped out at me was the parent complaining “It feels like the county is putting economic development above the needs of students. We moved to this area to be in a good school, and they’re squished.” So YOU moved there for the schools, but no one else was supposed to do the same? The other interesting point is the effect of the lack of affordable housing and the recession actually increasing enrollment. Not necessarily the effect you'd imagine, which is probably why it caught officials flat-footed. [/quote]
