[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with breaking it up between up/midcounty and downcounty?[/quote] Because it serves no purpose except to lock in certain school boundaries. I can't tell if the proponents honestly believe it would do anything useful and positive. I think there's a handful of upcounty people that think they'd yield more political influence in a hypothetical upcounty district, but they're forgetting that a lot of decisions (like school construction and COVID reopening) would still be driven at the county level. The weather thing is particularly ridiculous. There wouldn't be a big change in weather-related closures. You can't predict the boundaries of ice/snow that well in advance, and downcounty is still pretty geographically diverse. But perhaps most of all, they know people would be commuting from all over the county.[/quote]
