[quote=Anonymous]I think a discussion of the whether  boundary adjustments are necessary for an identified purpose or will make a difference is a good discussion.  I also think discussing whether the boundary adjustments (or other changes in NWDC where schools are performing well) are necessary at all or are just being considered to treat the whole city "fairly" is a good discussion.

I don't think "I pay more taxes than you so don't mess with my right to my school" is particularly persuasive and I find it offensive.

Also, the first time I used the phrase myopic it was refer to how ward 3 parents look when all we talk about is a few block shift in school assignment as if that is the end of the world because walking to school is the most important issue.  It is important to some, but I honestly do not think it should (or can) carry the day given the geography and school distribution in this city.

That said, I would be surprised if a number of the zone changes are not revisited based in the feedback that has been provided.  But no, I do not think the "walkers" are more important members than any other members of an existing school community.
