[quote=Anonymous]My child is OBB at a feeder that will send him to Deal and Wilson. These were the rules when we bought our house and yes my son is entitled to attend Deal and Wilson based on the rules when we entered. It is just like college and how you are governed by the catalog from the year you entered. It is a contract. The fact that every WOTP elementary school is overcrowded (NOT BECAUSE OF OBB KIDS) is the reason for the overcrowding. My son's school has its capacity designated by the powers that be - so regardless of whether he is in that seat OR some neighborhood kid - our school will still send their classes on to Deal and Wilson. Cutting OBB is just unfair and too easy a solution to a larger problem with boundaries and the move a few years ago in which nearly all elementary schools went from Pr-K to 5th grade...that wasn't always the case.[/quote]
