[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, we have the opt-in choice and my family is opting in. My kid will end up at the new school because that is where we want him. If the school as a whole is moved to the new school, great. If it’s not, kids who want to go there will be able to pupil place. I know where my kid is going, I’ll let other families make choices that work for them.

The school board has messed this entire thing up by being indecisive and having their priorities out of whack. The boundary review should have been adjusted as soon as they bought the new school to include the new school. That alone would have addressed some of the bigger issues that needed to be addressed in the boundary review. No idea why they have taken this ridiculous approach. I suspect that Meren is worried about too many of her constituents being moved at once and the impact on her pyramid so she is a large part of the problem.

People should be able to advocate for what they want without treating the process as a gladiator fight and trying to kill the other opponent to get what you want. The process has been ugly because of the way the school board set it up, trying to avoid being blamed for unpopular but hard decisions, and neighborhoods so desperate to stay where they are that they are actively trying to stab other neighborhoods in the back.
