[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]They avoided Powell and West when they were not considered acceptable options. Now, they don't avoid Powell and West. Nobody from the neighborhood has gone to either school against their will. Those schools improved and managed to sell themselves. MacFarland has to do the same. Nobody will go there because lines on a paper say they should. They will go there when the school can sell itself to them.[/quote] I guess we'll see exactly how it plays out in the 2017-2021 period. During those years, MacFarland will be freshly renovated, and all those neighborhood families your see at Powell and West will have tons of goodwill for the new school. The proof will be in which school they choose. I really truly hope you're right that most will choose MacFarland/Roosevelt. But I suspect most will cram themselves into Deal/Wilson instead.[/quote]
