[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With all this redrawing the boundaries talk, is there a distance you live from a school where they will not be allowed to change your designated school?  Like if you live on the same block as a school?  If you’re considered a walker and don’t have an assigned bus?  If you live within a half mile?  Or is no one safe?[/quote]

No one is safe.  You can live .20 miles from a school and walk but you are not assigned to that school.  The Horizon Hill neighborhood is still a huge issue because they are zoned to Ritchie Park (bus transportation) a school which is overcapacity while they could be walkers to Cold Spring ES, which is underutilized. If schools were centrally located in their zoned area then this is an easier topic. School boundaries should be looked at as neighborhoods do go through periods of increase and decreases of school aged kids.[/quote]

Perhaps, but if you're in a school's walks zone you're safe to say otherwise is just fearmongering.[/quote]
