It sounds like it’s your fault to not being able to afford living across the street of the high school. And it doesn’t matter [b]how you are going to suffer[/b] as long as we meet our diversity goal. Majority of Wootton area falls under the uncertainty map, not because they’re a lot closer to crown, simply just they’re more than two miles away to Wootton. [/quote]

Suffer how, specifically? [/quote]
Busing, that's how.[/quote]

But they're already being bused.[/quote]
no no no.. if they are zoned for a whiter school, then it's "they take the bus".. but if they get zoned for a school that has too many black/brown kids, then it's "they are being bused".

Shade of the kids matters; words matter.[/quote]
Busing has a widely accepted definition of assigning kids to a school (often farther from home) to increase diversity.  So yes, if white kids are zones for a whiter school farther from home it's not busing.   I oppose any school assignment based or demographics, so of it were up to me, I would fix all instances of neighborhoods not being assigned to their closest school.  This was also the position of the Neighborhood Schools FB group. [/quote]
Then you should want some of the Wootton and Churchill neighborhoods to get reassigned because they are not zoned for their closest school.

Even parts of Churchill cluster is closer to Crown than Churchill, or even closer to QO and maybe NW than Churchill.  I agree, those neighborhoods should move out of Churchill.
