[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are a Taylor parent opposed to moving Hamm students to Williamsburg, please check out the new Thought Exchange on the APS Engage site. We are behind in getting our position out there - Ashlawn appears much more organized as does Barrett to a lesser extent. [/quote]

What is Though Exchange?  I’ve never heard of that in my years at APS.

Taylor parents have been gathering input here http://www.hammwalkers.org/

Can you post Thought Exchange there?[/quote]

The petition is a great step but the Thought Exchange is going directly to APS on a daily basis. Plus it’s shiny and new so therefore loved by Syphax.[/quote]

So will staff even consider the petition?[/quote]

Doubtful. The main arguments as presented are walking is good and don’t split Taylor for MS. They already know walking is good but they want to bus the walkzones anyway. Plenty of other elementary schools split to 2 middle schools so that one isn’t compelling either. You need to present the alternate option that the most people will get behind. To me, that’s immersion to Williamsburg. The only people opposed are immersion people since it gives everyone else their current boundaries or close to them. [/quote]
