[quote=Anonymous]I'm a Bancroft parent and I have been working on this boundary issue for a few months now.

Bancroft is overcrowded so they are dealing with trying to get the numbers down.

-Get rid of PreK3 
-Cut off the boundary at Kenyon or Irving(depending on who you talk to) and send those kids to HD Cooke.
-Finding an annex building for the PreK 3 & 4 classes.
(The majority of parents support this proposal and are actively looking for prospective sites)

The second issue is the feeder pattern.  Right now Bancroft has a geographic feeder Deal/JR and two programmatic feeders CHEC and McFarland.

The powers that be want to only have two feeders one geographic and one programmatic.  The big fight is keeping Deal/JR. There are all kinds of scenarios and lobbying going on. There are all sorts of politics at play. The parents have organized(and are making lots of noise) and are trying to come up with the best solutions.

I hope this answers your question about why Bancroft had specific meetings last week on the boundary issues.[/quote]
