[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make HB high school only to alleviate crowding at other high schools. Move immersion to WMS. If haven’t seen a legitimate reason not to move it to WMS but if one exists, open up WMS for kids outside the boundary to opt-in. Lots of families looking to leave Gunston and Kenmore. Not a convenient location but opt-ins would need to figure out their own transit. [/quote]

You're not very informed.

APS already has a plan to have enough seats at the high school level.

Also WMS is already open to neighborhood transfers. [/quote]

Haha, their “plan” is the expectation that population will decline, and if not they will keep cramming kids into WL, and have already [b]documented night shift and remote learning plans [/b][/quote]

At some point they will probably try this and then be SHOCKED at the abysmally low test scores and high truancy levels of those who opt in. [/quote]

Honestly I used to hate the idea of night school and virtual school, but I kind of think of it like work from home.  Some kids might do really well in that environment, and some are going to choose it to disengage.  And these are the kids who would be disengaged anywhere.  So maybe getting them out of the overcrowded classrooms and letting them do whatever at home or in night school wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.  My 2 cents.[/quote]

Hard disagree. If m sure there are kids for whim virtual in some classes would be nice.  Kids on the margin who need extra encouragement to engage absolutely should be in the classroom. [/quote]
