[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] When that happens, Arlington ridge will pretend to care about losing their school's diversity but they won't do anything meaningful to protect it. Drew will be well over 50% farms, and Oakridge will prob be 10 or lower.

I live in Arlington Ridge and for us the school's diversity is a huge plus. PLease tell me how to meaningfully protect it, because I am there.[/quote]

Keep your eyes and ears out for the start of the boundary process.  Provide your input and ideas and suggestions. Organize an advocacy effort from Oakridge parents.  Know that many who say they value the diversity at Oakridge and don't want to lose it, are ones who will have to be moved in order to retain it.  Therefore, they will fight being moved rather than fight for retaining the diversity at Oakridge.  Help them see that they will have still that valuable diversity at Hoffman Boston or Drew.  Especially if APS is influenced enough into actually doing the right thing regarding boundaries for a change, all three of those schools will have a very healthy balance of diversity and the same academic excellence.[/quote]
