[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]So basically there's a lot of hope that without OOB slots available at Deal, more people will send their kids to MacFarland. But is this based on any polling of any kind? I wonder if those families will just go to charters for middle or private. Were there really that many OOB slots happening for EoTPers?[/quote] Many of those currently going to the Powell, West, etc. wouldn't have gone there a few years back. They would have tried to go OOB west of the park or to charters. Now that they have bought into their local elementary schools, they are more than ready to buy into a local middle school. They have been actively pushing for the school to be re-opened. This is particularly true for the families in dual-language programs, which MacFarland will offer. It's not just that there are fewer OOB slots at Deal (actually none), but that there is a larger pool of prepared students in the pipeline. [/quote]
