[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't always agree with him, but James Lander's comments resonated with me last night. He made the point that what the SB has consistently heard is that no one, regardless of race, income, etc., wants their kids bussed, and no one who is complaining is volunteering to have their kid transfer & be bussed for diversity's sake. I think the SB's hands are tied here. [/quote] Yes, exactly. The burden should always be on someone else to fix, no one's willing to take it on themselves. I was looking at elementary boundaries last night, contemplating what might happen when they open the Reed School, and realized that with the PUs now broken up, we will probably be rezoned into a different elementary school when our youngest will be starting fourth grade (so probably no grandfathering there). That makes me sad, because we've been at our elementary school for years, it's our community and I hate the idea of not finishing our elementary years there. But I also see a whole host of reasons why it would be the most sensible option, and I get that it's not all about me and what I want, it's about everyone. So when those maps come out and they have us moving to a different school, I will keep my mouth shut and accept it because it's the right choice, even if it's not what i want.[/quote]
