[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4 want a reduction of FARMS at Drew (Van Doren is silent).[/quote]

My listening has been periodically interrupted, I’d actually started to wonder if she was there because I hadn’t heard her talk until just now. Any sense of what her reluctance is?[/quote]

She really believes in integration by choice. I actually agree with her on this point, because it works and people feel happy about it, like they have agency in the matter. But since the rest of Arlington is against it, not sure how that can happen. I just think they need to do something, whatever they can. They can't just sit on their hands with the data they have and do nothing. [/quote]

I agree with your characterization of her views. And I also agree with her. Forced integration in Arlington simply will not fly. People’s lives and commutes will not withstand materially less proximate schools. Around the edges would work. But around the edges won’t make much of and impact in much of the county. [/quote]
