[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any new HS at kenmore will never have less than 35% farms unless it is completely lottery. Most of the families south of it are in affordable units and the county will basically let as many affordable units go up as the developers can handle. The single family homes in glen carlyn and probably barcroft don't have enough kids to change the percentage.

The kenmore zone to the north is not that big and very soon gets within walking distance of WL - think those parents will not scream about moving to kenmore? And then it gets close to yorktown.

[b]Ideally[/b], a new HS is needed on the east side of the county, not the west.[/quote]

We are way past ideally at this point and more like bottom of the barrel in terms of locations.  If the new HS goes to Kenmore it needs to either be a choice that many find desirable and whose program can accommodate 1300 students (which HB allegedly cannot even when it's a MS and HS combined) or the SB will have to act like grown ups and redraw boundaries while ignoring any complaints/pressure.[/quote]
