[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rezoning is a huge deal for all the kids (GE and AAP) who have been in one ES for 4+ years and get moved to a different school. How would you feel if your DC was told s/he had to move schools, away from friends, teachers s/he knows and the programs/supports s/he has? I'd be furious (and my DCs aren't ES age, so it wouldn't affect us directly). But really-- these are thousands of actual kids you are shuffling around. [/quote]

first world problems. I see you had no issues moving to a center. Do you only make friends with kids who go to the center? Do you shun your own neighborhood friends?

PLEASE get over it.[/quote]

Seriously.  This is so low in the whole scheme of things to get worked up about.  These kids were obviously able to make the transition to the center at some point.  So the kids return to their neighborhood school... [i]along with all the other neighborhood kids[/i].  See how that works?  Nothing difficult about it at all, though I'm sure there will be parents who act like the sky is falling, just as they did when we (finally) went to full-day Mondays.  The sky didn't fall then, and it won't fall now.[/quote]

And that it's just AAP kids moving back to base, who would be affected? Nope. GE kids would have to be moved from one base to another to rebalance the school size. Oh right-- all of a sudden the that's your kid who has to deal with a mid ES change. Not looking so great now, is it? 
You think slicing off 1/2 of a school's population is no big deal?   Really?  Taking 350 kids out of one school is no problem? (multiply by oh... 20 or more schools)  Something to fiddle with over the summer?  Wow.[/quote][/quote]
