[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should the feed be on the Hill? It is a citywide school.[/quote]

This is pretty clearly trolling, but I'll answer as if it's not.

[b]They've done a study and something like 90% of the student body is on the Hill.[/b]  Most of the families currently have a by-rights feed to Stuart-Hobson, although whether that survives the boundary re-draw remains to be seen.

The LSAT has released principles to guide the discussion, based on a working group and school survey.  They would like to have a feed, that fits with the R-E curriculum.  There is no request for a feed to a specific school or program.

To answer the OP's question - yes, it is definitely being discussed.  [/quote]

Given that it started out in Peabody that is to be expected.  However, now that it is a city-wide school, you can expect that to change over time.  The Hill may always have a large contingent in the student body given that A) likely to rank it higher because of the proximity, and B) it will take time for the sibling preference of current students to age out.  Nonetheless, the school can be expected to have a much more citywide draw, each year.  The 90% will go down.

That said, there aren't any good choices for a designated feeder.  This is the same problem with DCPS that everyone who isn't zoned for Deal has.[/quote]
