[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In taking the suggestion to push the BOE hard on delaying the regional model implementation, I also think they should face a lot of pressure to either select Option B from the current slate or another one altogether that doesn’t significantly increase Einstein’s FARMS rate.  They need to be pushed hard on both fronts.

Are the upcoming Facilities and Boundaries Hearings good places to do this?[/quote]

Rather than quibbling over which of the current bad choices for Einstein is best, there should be pushback on the entire approach where the wealthier schools and neighborhoods get treated better than the DCC ones.  These options basically leave Whitman and BCC untouched and split WJ kids between WJ and Woodward, leaving the main difference between the options how much Einstein loses and Northwood gains when it comes to FARMS rates.  We shouldn't be pitting Northwood against Einstein-- we should be asking why WJ and BCC neighborhoods are so untouchable that they couldn't possibly be redistricted into DCC schools (Kensington is right freaking next to Einstein, for goodness sakes!)
