[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]several times yesterday I heard commenters say proposed changes would make Ward 3 schools worse. Now I can understand they might become less connected to local communities or property values might go down or that certain proposals have no community support. But I cannot believe that the schools themselves would become "worse." Those who believe that, prove your point.[/quote] OK, here are two examples: Taking Eaton out of Deal will result in less diversity at Deal because of Eaton's diversity. Forcing Eaton students to Hardy and, worse, considering assigning Hardy to some to-be-determined high school instead of Wilson, will cause students to bail from Eaton, particularly better-prepared/advantaged kids whose parents may be in a position to pursue private alternatives. Finally, taking Oyster out of Deal and Wilson will result in lower quality education for Oyster kids. [/quote]
