[quote=Anonymous]Personally, I would value more diversity and we're lucky to be in great cluster that is internationally diverse. It hasn't been brought here but IMO busing or school-wide choice is bad solution to the problem. One of the compelling aspects of public school is community. We switched from private and the fact that the kids go to school with neighbors makes a big difference. They see each other at activities in the area and it requires less planning to car pool and just have people over. The school fun events are more widely attended because everyone is close by. These things do make a difference for kids and is an experience I would like them to continue to have. I also don't think its good from a safety standpoint to have young children commuting 30+ minutes to an hour each way to another school. [/quote]
