[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This policy makes no sense. When APS was generating numbers for the discussion of redrawing high school boundaries, they showed that for every ~400 high school students moved, there were about 100 siblings who might be impacted.

Currently, there are somewhat more than 400 high school students at HB. So does this new sibling policy mean that as many as 100 additional students could be added to HB grades 9-12 in any given year? I'm not sure I care one way or another but it seems like if that's the case, that's a policy decision that should be discussed.

And if my kid is on the waitlist, and 100 siblings get to hop in front of him? That is going to seriously piss me off. And I bet I'm not the only one.

This is a bullshit policy. BULLSHIT. HB families have been dealing with having their children in different high/middle schools for generations. It is not a hardship. It is a choice. And if you don't want to make that choice, then send your kids to your home school.[/quote]

Please write to each individual school board member. Encourage your friends to do the same thing! We have to shut this down.[/quote]

Done, just sent off my letter[/quote]
