[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The least bad of those 2 is Dasgupta. However, there are no good candidates of the top 4 getting any press (Austin, Dasgupta, Guan, Harris). 1 is a disrupter and 3 are the status quo. [/quote] Alternatively, 1 wants to maintain the status quo, and 3 want to change it, in different ways.[/quote] Dasgupta is running as the Teacher's Union puppet. Definitely not an option for me. It doesn't matter what he says.... when you collect that union endorsement, you are in their pocket. It's just the way it works.[/quote] This! It's why I'm voting for Austin. He's definitely the candidate the union fears most.[/quote] he's also the one who wants status quo for overcrowded schools.[/quote] You are a liar. Austin doesn't want the status quo for overcrowded schools, and he's made that extremely clear. However[b], he doesn't want socio-economic diversity to be given priority over other factors when adjusting boundaries, because this will lead to students having to travel excessive distances to schools. [/b][/quote] Neither does the BOE or most other parents. If you are referring to upcounty boundary, those kids who were moved don't have "excessive" travel distances. If you think they do, please detail the differences in busing time pre and post the boundary change. There are current boundaries where it takes more than 15minutes for students to get to their assigned schools, including those in the W clusters. So, if you are against more than 15min on a bus, then you should want BOE to change some of the W cluster boundaries, too. Are you and Austin for that? [/quote]
