No, what you're doing by bringing it down by a few percentage points rather than up is recognizing that the housing that is already under construction, and that which is planned, will cause that number up to go up in the future so why not try to bring it down now in anticipation so that you can keep it under 50%. I don't understand your logic. Because this move doesn't solve all problems and do all things, it should do nothing? Every boundary decision should be inching us closer to schools that more closely reflect the diversity of all of Arlington. Also, option 3 affects the fewest number of low income students. That's the best move as far as I'm concerned because it maintains stability for those families. You want your convenience and stability maintained, but [b]you want it on the backs of others who have less political capital and who have less of everything. Just recognize that. Your convenience comes at a price, one that others will pay[/b].

To me, the most appalling thing is not that a group of citizens are greedy and self-absorbed, bad as it is. The most appalling part is that the School Board, ever mindful of the feelings of the upper-middle class, will capitulate to the whining of the AF parents.

Stop calling me and asking for support and donations, Arlington County Democrats. Your opportunistic capitulations are why I send my money to actual progressives in other states. [/quote]

AMEN![/quote]
