[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lee HS pyramid - 
Crestwood Elementary School, Free/Reduced 79%  
Forestdale Elementary School, Free/Reduced 49%
Garfield Elementary School, Free/Reduced 65% 
Lynbrook Elementary School, Free/Reduced 85%
Saratoga Elementary School, Free/Reduced 45% 
Springfield Estates Elementary School (AAP Center), Free/Reduced 32%

Boundary changes needed in this pyramid? YES.  Not easy to get done. I do like the options discussed so far -  closing the school or make it a magnet school.

The closed school site can be converted into a recreation center (closest are Lee ReC and Audrey Moore). The area lacks fields and community center.  [/quote]

The thought is that the additional seats from students who want to pursue IB and the cost saving of having a single IB school (including less IBO fees) is a factor.

The other factor is that Lee's growing ESOL population and SOL performance is going to eventually get it in the state's cross hairs.

Crestwood Elementary School, Free/Reduced 79% -- West Springfield
Forestdale Elementary School, Free/Reduced 49% -- Hayfield
Garfield Elementary School, Free/Reduced 65% -- West Springfield
Lynbrook Elementary School, Free/Reduced 85% -- Annandale or West Springfield
Saratoga Elementary School, Free/Reduced 45% -- South County
Springfield Estates Elementary School (AAP Center), Free/Reduced 32% -- Edison or Hayfield
Rolling Valley -- West Springfield.

Obviously some West Springfield seats would move to lake braddock and some of lake braddock's seats would move to Robinson. Some edison seats would move to Annandale as well.

It's all theoretical now, but it's definitely something that could happen if the circumstances call for it.
