The community involvement truly does have a big part to play in the Reggio model, and SWS has that today, which I believe has lead to its historical success.  That's not to say they can't and won't develop a sense of community with a citywide population, but there is a difference.  One must admit there's an inherent value to having the people that live across the street personally invested in the success of any endeavor/program.  I'm hard pressed to think of anyone else who may be more motivated in the success of this program than those families that live across the street - as long as their kids get to attend.  It changes the discourse about many things, from traffic patterns to rec center use, and I think would have a big effect on how the school fits and how the attendees feel in this community.
Are there arguments against that?[/quote]
Your definition of community is narrow. I live about as close as possible to another good es but kids attend sws and we feel every bit as integral to that community as families who live a block or  awayWe feel no connection to the much closer es[/quote]
