[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]  [quote=Anonymous] I am a Westbrook parent (well, former one) and of course this needs to be done.  It is senseless to have empty seats at a school while immediately adjacent schools are overcrowded.  And to the people talking about changign the identity of the school - that's utter nonsense.  Please tell me how Westbrook, Somerset and Bethesda are so very different?  Plus, all these kids will be together in middle school anyway.  [/quote]

+1 If schools are bursting at the seams as Bethesda and Somerset are and there's a school that has lots of open space as Westbrook does, why wouldn't you shift kids around--especially since they will end up in the same MS anyway and you aren't asking people to commute massive distances to do so????

[b]When is the shift scheduled to happen?[/b] [/quote]

The board will vote on the new boundaries in November 2021, and reassignments would begin to take effect in Fall 2022. Fifth-graders would typically be grandfathered in at their existing schools.[/quote]

Anyone who is trying to get people twisted up about this is doing so in the service of a larger agenda.  This is a large nothing burger.  [/quote]
