[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the neighborhood school folks are sipping on the Kool-aid too. Trendy folks love to call other people trendy.[/quote]

As one of the neighborhood school folks, I am confused about this.  I was very upfront that my choice was driven by convenience.  If my neighborhood school was immersion, I would have embraced immersion.  Choosing convenience may be trendy, but I suspect it is an enduring trend.[/quote]

There's no need to be confused.  Just the realization that people are latching on to the neighborhood school trend now that more neighborhood schools are an option.  Ten years ago, this would not have been a option for those that are in bounds for transitional or recently transitioned schools. Walking convenience was not the calling card just 5 years ago.[/quote]

Sure, the fact that our neighborhood school is a pretty good school was also important.  But again, seems weird to assert that people taking this into account are doing so because it is "trendy."[/quote]
