[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the post a while back about the person who bought a cheaper bigger house in another neighborhood because they were already set for their kids to attend the center rubs me the wrong way after the fight we just endured.  The only people who have an absolute right to be in any school are the ones in that district (yes, I realize lines do change from time to time).  In the overcrowding situation at GBW, the center was the issue, and it needed to be remedied.  If you bought in another neighborhood and expected that your kids have a right to attend another school, you are wrong.  If it is absolutely critically important that your children must attend one school only, please buy as close to that school as possible within the boundary line.[/quote]

The person IS in the boundary line.  They are in the center boundary.  Sure, it could change same as a base boundary can change.  I'm not sure why you think it's ok for one parent to buy within a specific boundary but not the other.  Both are in boundary (different boundary criteria). You seem to think it's your kid's school and her kid is a guest. Guess what. . . It's her kid's school too!  Your attitude is part of the problem.[/quote]

again, if there isn't a problem like we had with overcrowding, that's all well and good.  But, thinking logically, if a center school becomes overcrowded, the first segment of students that should be looked at for reassignment are those in the special program that is hosted at that school ESPECIALLY if there are under enrolled schools that have room for them nearby.  It's great that it has become their school, but there was a choice made along the way to make a change to where the child attended school.  If you think that makes me a horrible person to say this, so be it.[/quote]
