[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best option: make Van Ness for PK3-K, and Amidon for grades 1-5.

Or for each school to run PK-5 with plenty of economic diversity, make L St SE and M St SW the border, where north goes to Amidon and south goes to Van Ness.

Or, the reverse since Amidon already has strong and well attended PK programs. Although, the north to Amidon, south of M to Van Ness boundary does rather make sense, especially since there are some projects south of M but also a bunch of townhouses that, in time, will have more families and more school age kids.

In general, SW is a bit elderly and I think you'll see a continuing trend of turnover of townhouses, with them being bought by younger residents with kids, which may increase demand for spots at Amidon, whereas the number of homes about the right size for families (i.e. not a one bedroom condo) with residents having children is pretty much encompassed by the EYA townhouse in SE, so is less likely to grow. (Even with more construction coming online in SE, I don't think very much of it looks to be family size. That is, of course, true in SW, too, but I think the existing 3 bed+ inventory is larger over there.)[/quote]

"Projects".  Are you about to tell us so,ethijg you know about the N****, Mr. Buddy?[/quote]
