[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What was the vibe at the public forum last night?[/quote]

It was primarily Lyon Park and Glebe families both thanking the Board for the tweaks that appeared in the map last night aligning them with their elementary school classmates.  One or two folks who were really upset at the lack of diversity.  A few Dominion Hills folks also thanking the Board for valuing proximity and keep them at Swanson.  One Boulevard Manor parent upset that they are the only units slated to go from Kenmore to Yorktown.  They were a few of the 11th hour units moved from W-L to Yorktown last year and fought that move.  And a few EFC parents upset that the move to Williamsburg pulls them from Swanson and they will be isolated from other Williamsburg families, and patently unwalkable or bike-able because of all the major intersections.

Board said they expect that they may do some more tweaks between now and the 14th, although they could also vote on the recommendation as it stands.  Reid Goldstein specifically said he is worried about the enrollment imbalances, since the primary reason for this effort was to ease overcrowding, so he will be offering a revision possibly by the weekend.
