[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what high performing schools on that side of the city doe't have a good hs feed? Stodderd?  put those schools with shepherd and lafayette and make it a "small" high school and cap it at 800-1200 as a carrot since not everyone wants a huge high school and it will feel like an attractive alternative to Wilson.  You need to create a second highschool not just move families into an underperforming school that will be at capacity soon anyway.  Not sure what to do about deal.[/quote]

Those are ES, they also need a middle school, and there are many of those already, and they feed to under enrolled high schools. So even though I like your idea because it created a carrot as you say.  A joined up Middle and High could work, but still do the numbers support it? And could it be justified with the current facilities available.  I bet the answer to both of those is NO. [/quote]

Can't they keep teh same middle school but be zoned for a different high school?  So Ross feeds to cardoza middle school feeds cardoza but then Ross feeds new "lafayette shepherd west ross stodderd" high school. throw in one underperforming school too.  Families can go charter or private for middle school and then join high school.  Lafayette and shepherd can go to deal and then join new high school, no feed to wilson. [/quote]
