[quote=Anonymous]Its not complex, its driven by parents, mainly in Ward 3 who complain about overcrowding but also don't want to moved out of their current school to even another school in Ward 3. Feeder rights-started under Michelle Rhee-this creates a huge problem and was meant to give more kids certainty of opportunity through hgih school. No one expected how many upper class parents woudl stick with Deal and Wilson. Bascially, there should be no more out of bounds kids in Ward 3 elem school. Expand the boundary for Hardy, and take at least 500 kids out of deal and put them in Hardy. (see my first parents about parents pushing back). No one thinks twice about sending kids from Mnt Pleasant and Shepard Park across the park to Ward 3 schools, But why aren't we sending Ward 3 schools back across the park into Wards 1, and 4 for school? Take Bancroft and MArie Reed out of Oyster middle schools feed. Put them in MacFarland.[/quote]
