[quote=Anonymous]OP here: The main reason we prefer not to move schools (if Claremont were to move) is the additional driving distance on the bus and activities (since we have 3 kids and 2 working parents, proximity and convenience are important). It's the oldest child who has a slot at Claremont...so this is just thinking down the road. I haven't been following the boundary study too closely, but it does seem like the Claremont neighborhood is currently served by Abingdon, so I'm not sure why moving the school would be a huge help...but again I'm not tracking on all the other issues and don't want to start that debate here. I'm starting to think in the long-run, bilingual education would be a huge benefit and maybe one we should take (even though we're not sure and don't speak Spanish ourselves). (We were very high in the lottery waitlist and just got a notice of a spot, which is why this is suddenly a choice we didn't think we'd have.)[/quote]
