[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]It does not impact Eaton as Hardy is already an opened middle school. It only impacts kids that were IB for Deal and were going to be grandfathered for a few years after Macfarland opened. Now they stay until 2022 regardless of when Macfarland opens.[/quote]

Not to nitpick, okay, to nitpick, the previous plan didn't contain any grandfathering once MacFarland opened. That was part of our complaints because we didn't know when MacFarland would open and it would become our assigned school on day 1. It made planning impossible.

My bad, you're right. I just had it in my head that would be a tweak that was going to happen. Only seems like the fair thing to do. [/quote]

No, the fair thing was to tell them that unless and until McFarland opens, they can continue to attend Deal. Assure them that there will be at least one full school year's warning before the opening of McFarland.

That's fair. This is just the first step towards granting the neighborhood rights to Deal and Wilson in perpetuity. The rest of the city EOTP should be pissed off right now. [/quote]

Yes absolutely. When she will seek re-election she will buy votes by promising further extensions to granfathering. Forget about rewamping MacFarland and about Deal overcrowding. Deal feeder map is just ridicolous.[/quote]
