[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so unbeleivably insane that the Landmark Mall redevelopment didn't include a second HS that I seriously wonder if it was and just hasn't been announced yet. It's in the absolute perfect location in terms of population and transit that it is simply inconceivable that one wasnt planned for.[/quote] Alexandria government doesn't even plan for a second high school because they believe a second high school would be inequitable. So no, there wasn't anyone even at the Landmark table pitching a new HS.[/quote] They could draw boundaries to make any new school equitable. ACHS isn’t exactly pedestrian friendly anyways on busy King Street. So bussing of students would happen under any boundary scenario. [/quote] It's never going to happen in our lifetime. NEVER. People need to accept it and stop twisting themselves into knots speculating what ifs. I wish they would have at least 3 high schools and having one at Landmark would have been very convenient for the west end population. But who cares, because this is absolutely the hill everyone who has the ability to make this decision (whether it is the school board or city council or city manager or whomever) will die on. They're not going to do it. No matter how many options, complaints, etc. NEVER. It is just mind blowing.[/quote]
