[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are you getting your information on a proposed new  zone for a second high school?[/quote]

The current zones for middle schools, of which there are two for the city. The disparity between Hammond and GW is staggering. [/quote]

They have an equal GS rating of 3.  How is the disparity staggering? [/quote]

The GS ranking is based - for every school - on reports submitted by GS participants.  Those reports can be uneven and sparse and some people don’t regard them as being accurate or comprehensive.  Alexandria parents seem to understand that GW is generally well-regarded but is physically falling apart (quite literally), and that FH has a prior history, only recently changed by the very good current Principal, of not being academically high-quality and being a chaotic environment.  The schools have not been comparable to each other.  And there is very much an SES difference between the two zones, just as there will be between the existing high school and the new west end high school.  [/quote]
