[quote=Anonymous]I can only speak for myself, but my interest in Upper NW would go down with any of the redistricting options. As someone who was planning to buy in either Janney or Murch districts, I will think twice if the current plans move forward. I forget which one of the plans would assign people to one of a limited set of schools, but I think that would put a damper on the neighborhood cohesiveness that makes ward 3 so attractive. Also it would mean that we couldn't buy someplace walking distance to a school and know that our kids would go to that school. We only have one car so we need a school to be either easily accessible via public transport or walkable. and the options that would mean that we wouldn't definitely get into Deal are also strikes against the neighborhood. There were a bunch of reasons why my family was waiting to move WOTP but wanting to see how this boundary stuff plays out was definitely a factor. As it is, if any of these proposals go forward we may just play the charter lottery for a few more years and worst case move to a walkable neighborhood in the burbs where we'd know that we'd get into good neighborhood schools.[/quote]
