[quote=Anonymous]I know kids who are opting in. I know that many people in this thread don't want to believe it but we are opting in. The loudest voices are the ones not wanting to move, but there are others who have been saying that they are excited to move. I am not sure how many more times we have to say the same thing. Not everyone is sold on the idea that the community at a specific HS is so amazing that they have to go there. Not everyone thinks that the old schools will have better teachers or classes. Not everyone thinks that you have to have a football team or varsity sports to make a school a good school. There are those of us who know that freshman and sophomores are not likely to make the varsity or take on lead roles in plays so the lack of varsity sports or a established theatre program is less of an issue. Heck, there are opportunities that come with the new school. There are those of us who know that new schools open and kids form clubs and teams and bands and it works out just fine. And there will be parents who will not be all that aware of anything happening and their kids will go to the school indifferent, but they would have been indifferent at their old school. Choose to go to your current school, that is fine. I get it. But we are making a different choice and are excited for the opportunity. And we know others doing the same. The class might be smaller than normal but that is not necessarily a bad thing. [/quote]
