[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They will be able to point to the new policy and say that they have to follow the rules, they were studying McLean all along and since the process wasn't finished the two schools have to be considered in the new policy. [/quote]

I can be indignant that the School Board didn't plan better and allowed McLean to get overcrowded, or expanded Langley when it was McLean that actually needed the addition.

I can be relieved that the Board is finally taking steps to address the overcrowding and, hopefully, balance the enrollments starting next fall.

What I won't do is assume the worst-case scenario merely because some right-wing groups make stuff up and think that might be a path to getting some R candidates elected to lower-level positions when they aren't competitive in other state and local contests.     [/quote]

It's a myth that this is just right wing parents who are upset.  Listen to the Board members at those work sessions.  Don't be deceived.  Your child could be bused out of your own community.  It's not just busing in, it is also busing out.  And, it won't be limited to high schools.

The policy should be:
capacity
commute time
distance
community
SES[/quote]
