[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all know that Shepherd is 74% non-white and 7% at-risk, right? 7% at risk is maybe 3 kids per grade? So we're going to pull 3 kids per year into a separate feeder pattern? Based on which year of at-risk status? The entry year into the school? Matriculating grade? [/quote] If there's one thing poor kids love, it's having themselves ripped away from all their friends in their class in the big transition between schools, because their family has less money. :roll: This whole 'modest proposal' of different feeder patterns based on income is just circle jerking among different political factions of rich people who resent each other, using low income families as props.[/quote] Then send everyone to their neighborhood school; no lottery, no OOB.[/quote] Friend, that horse left the barn decades ago. There's no going back from school choice at this point.[/quote]
