[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am investigating moving to the Westland/BCC district and noticing that a bunch of places in the Westbard and Kenwood area that are basically right next door to Westland but are zoned for Pyle. I mean these are dwellings that are literally a few hundred yards from Westland and three+ miles from Pyle but you have to take your kid out to Pyle? What’s up with that? Is there any flexibility? I realize that both are good schools but it’s a plus for me to live walking distance from my kids school and I’d rather live closer in[/quote] Many of the boundaries in Western moco were horribly gerrymandered to exclude lower-income families decades ago when they were drawn. Unfortunately the Board of Education is reluctant to make the needed changes in the interest of fairness or simply reducing transportation costs because parents get worked into a lather every time changes are suggested.[/quote]
