[quote=Anonymous]Having had more than my fill of the irrelevant bantering on other threads, I thought I'd try to start a new one for people who have actual thoughtful comments, suggestions, and ideas to improve the current proposed boundaries for the south arlington elementary schools.  So, if you can contribute in that manner and refrain from the extraneous commentary, let's have some legitimate thoughts for discussion.

There have been a few thoughtful suggestions re. the Henry PUs south of the Pike and alternative PUs related to Abingdon.  What do sensible, reasonable people think about the current proposal and how it can be improved?

There is another suggestion in the previous Drew boundary thread to move the Claremont neighborhood PUs to Drew.  That would probably not pass the "map test" because it would cut-off Columbia Forest from the contiguous Abingdon boundary; but if APS was willing to propose what it just did with 2 Columbia Forest PUs (concocting contiguity to make it technically appear to follow the principle) why not at least keep each neighborhood together even if it chops the map a bit?  It could help the 3 middle schools issue, too.
And btw, middle school boundaries could be tweaked again in another few years; so folks should keep that in mind as they comment on the alignment issue now.[/quote]
