[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of the Dominion Hills Neighborhood and turning walkers into busriders- yes a lot of these scenarios transfer you from Swanson to Kenmore. But guess what- you are still a walker. It is 1.7 miles from Swanson to Kenmore. The schools are just not that far apart. It is actually an extremely pleasant walk along the 4 mile run trail- or Kensington st if you prefer to stick to streets. APS thinks that middle schoolers can walk 1.5 miles. The closest house to Swanson that is being talked about being moved to Kenmore is precisely 1.5 miles- That is the outer edge of the Planning Unit.[/quote] The DH units touch the Swanson unit. The closest houses are two blocks from Swanson, the furthest are closer to 3/4-1mi. No way in hell would I put 6th graders on that trail before dawn, which is what they would have to do for DH kids to walk to Kenmore and current Kenmore kids to walk to DH. H is beyond stupid.
