[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For most sane parents, this is an entirely financial debate because none of us would ever consider actually sending our children to failing schools if rezoned.  It would just be expensive to move, that's all.

I hope the BOE understands that it can change boundaries, but [b]it will never get our kids[/b].[/quote]

You keep saying that. Who's we, and how will the BoE get whoever-we-are's kids?[/quote]

My child is not a social experiment.
My child is not a full-time tutor.
My child is not a stairstep as the education politicians look for a promotion.
My family will not play your game.

If you live in a highly segregated neighborhood near an integrated neighborhood, your child is ALREADY a social experiement. Just an experiment that began before you bought your house, and one based ondecades of housing and education policy. [/quote]

No.  The majority of families along boundaries of highly achieving schools sacrificed to prioritize the education of their children.  These are first generation immigrant families, single mothers, and families hit by adversity.  All are doing the best they can.

You may the power to take their savings and their dreams, but do not for a minute think that you have the moral high ground.

You don't.[/quote]
