[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about the homeowners and non-ESL students that live in the Lewis boundaries? They should be forced to move to other schools and see their home values suffer? Doesn't seem right to me.[/quote]

Wtf are you babbling about? How would their home values suffer going to a better performing school with more kids? Seems like it would be a win for them.

But, to be fair, I don’t think they should have to move if they don’t want to. 1,500 students is only a critical shortfall if you are trying to make a blatant equity play. [b]It’s the people in Lewis pyramid trying to bolster their own house value at the expense of their neighbors.[/b][/quote]

I’ve never heard any Lewis parent talk about their property values in advocating for a boundary change.  Only the desire to for their child(ren) to have a high school experience similar to neighboring high schools.

On the flip side, I’ve seen multiple posts over the years worrying about the potential loss of value for homes rezoned out of certain schools. But that seems to be acceptable, in this community. [/quote]
