[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why I applaud the BOE's efforts to analyze cluster boundaries and to bus the W kids away to other schools so that other kids can have these opportunities regardless of where their parents can afford to buy a home. [/quote]

Don’t you get it?  It will never work.  Ever.  We live in bounds for Whitman and you know what happens if they redistrict and want to bus my kids across town so other kids can “have these opportunities”?  We buy a new house in the new in bounds for Whitman.  As do all of our friends.  Or we go to private.  And then all the “extra parent funds” you want will be gone.  Guess what?  Life isn’t fair.  It’s not.  Some people have more.  My husband works 60-70 hour weeks plus weekends.  Does yours?  And we paid triple for our house in our neighborhood as it would have cost in yours because of the schools.  I wish that the BOE would spend the money doing they’re spending on this stupid redistricting analysis and actually TRY to  figure out what to do to help lower performing schools.  But if you think all the Whitman parents are just going to wave as their kid gets on a bus across town you’re out of your mind.    [/quote]

No one is trying to bus Whitman kids across town. Nor is anyone trying to bus kids from across town to Whitman.[/quote]
