[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a couple of families who moved out of boundaries and they children stayed in the school (Murch). Also kids who went to Murch automatically went to Deal for MS because Murch is feeder school, even if people moved out of boundaries. [/quote] This may have been the case in the past, it is no longer true at Murch. There is at least one family who moved OOB this year who was told that they cannot return if they do not lottery in for a lower grade. The parents and child(ren) are well liked. The new rules and pressure of very large numbers of in bounds kids has changed the game for the popular NW schools. Proof of residence has also gotten tougher. They have to take anyone in bounds, one of the only ways to influence class size the other way is to refuse to allow kids who move OOB to return. It's nothing personal, it's supply and demand. Families that START OOB have the freedom to move anywhere. In bounds families do not.[/quote]
