[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I really think that parents who live in the key district specifically so their kids can attend ASFS will bus their kids to Reed if the school is moved.  Not all, but many. Many of those kids are already bused to ASFS because the school in NOT in their neighborhood but rather is located inside Taylor boundaries. And if the team concept is maintained at a "new ASFS" then there will be many Taylor and Jamestown parents who have had basically no shot at ASFS who will be willing to bus their kids to Reed.

I am not taking a position one way or other about moving ASFS to Reed, and I think the team concept is currently completely broken.  Moving ASFS to Reed and maintaining the team seems illogical but then it may be logical to the planners who have to find seats for elementary students.

I think the high school overcrowding is a much bigger issue and what goes into Reed pales in comparison.

Me again.  The real issue is how much political clout ASFS has because the PTA and other groups have invested significant amounts of money on projects within the school, such as the new investigation station, geared for science.  Years and years and big, big bucks. They will not want to leave that behind.[/quote]
