[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd want to see a map of the proposed 4th high school boundary. I'd want to see which PU's and see a break down of the numbers of free and reduced lunch. I want to know what exactly the demographics of this new school will look like. I'd want a commitment from the SB about which Yorktown units will be moved to the new school. That fight needs to be had before south Arlington agrees to Kenmore. [/quote] I live in north Arlington and I totally agree with this. If we are doing Kenmore for the benefit of all the angry people who live in the north who don't want the 4,000 seat W-L (and it is mostly north Arlington that is mobilizing in favor of Kenmore), their commitment to send their kids there needs to be obtained NOW before the decision is made. If the North wants this from the South, they need to commit to the success of the school with their kids, so this won't be another bait and switch pulled on the south. That's the only way I support the Kenmore option now. Otherwise it seems destined to be a socioeconomically challenged school and that's not fair. I'd rather have a 4,000 seat W-L where kids are more anonymous but still likely to succeed because it was a good combination of rich and poor kids. [/quote]
