[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they’re going to do all these split articulations anyway they should pull Town of Kensington kids within the Einstein walk zone into the school. That might get people’s attention. [/quote]

TOK is not really walkable to Einstein. To walk from near Warner Circle to Einstein is 1.5 miles and having kids cross University, where we have already had 2 pedestrian deaths this year. [/quote]

Its not walkable at all but nor is a lot of homes across University as there are few sidewalks, and not all streets even have stop signs.  There was also the death on Plyers Mill.[/quote]

I don’t understand the sour grapes about TOK. The entire community of Kensington is already divided up between 4 elementary schools - Kensington Parkwood, Rosemary Hills, Oakland Terrace, and Rockview, which all feed to different MS and HSs. There was a boundary study in the early 00s that decided that TOK would go to WJ instead of being divided up between 3 high schools, as it was previously. This was settled a long time ago. [/quote]

School boundaries are never “settled” permanently. New schools are built, population and demographic trends change, and adjustments need to be made. Just like Congressional districts have to be redrawn after every Census.[/quote]
