[quote=Anonymous]W parent here. I totally agree that the "no consequences" policy needs to be changed, for all, because it's absurd. I also think we need to bring back final exams, etc. None of our kids are being properly prepared for college, regardless of family income level.

I disagree that kids from lower income families are likely to be more disruptive. I am not remotely concerned about my daughters being subject to more inappropriate behavior were they to be in school with more kids from lower income families. I definitely don't give a rat's ass about race.

I have no objection to any boundary changes yet, because no specifics have been proposed. Any objection I may have in the future will be solely to any proposal that results in an unreasonable bus ride for my kids. They already don't get enough sleep as it is, and getting up 30-60 minutes earlier to catch the bus is the last thing they need.

That's it. Any boundary change that keeps bus time about the same (or shorter) is fine with me. Don't care who else is in their class. Any option that has my kids on a bus for 30+ minutes, when we live 5 min from their current school, I will oppose. That's my real issue.
