[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would imagine Key is having a collective heart attack right now.  I do not see any realistic probability that it will remain in its current location.[/quote]

Not as big as the ‘heart attack’ ASFS looked to be having (see, e.g., petition) when it looked like Key was going option without a building switch.  But that’s in the past.   Key was rope-a-doped, arguably.[/quote]

They'll have the heart attack when the SB finally breaks it to them that the science lab won't move with them.[/quote]

Eh, Key has an amazing playground, green grass and better field space. SB will be out of money to renovate playground or turf after all this shenanigans, so everyone is giving up something. [/quote]

Yes, a majority Latino school seems like it is being taken for the benefit of a majority of whites.[/quote]

Ha, no. No one at ASFS wanted to move. It was Cherrydale parents who orchestrated this.  They get the cool new lab but have kind of lackluster outdoor space.

Agree current Key families are getting shaft. [/quote]

BS, there were plenty of posters on this board claiming that current ASFS parents wanted to move to the Key building and take all the science stuff with them.  I suspect they were the ASFS families who lived closest to Key and knew that if the Key building became a neighborhood school they’d be zoned to it.[/quote]

I was one of those posters and we aren't at either school. I just knew that Key was definitely turning neighborhood and I thought it would be better a better outcome for current ASFS families, and less disruptive and expensive than moving multiple schools. ASFS didn't realize what was happening and kept thinking they'd get to stay by arguing for a being a neighborhood school with a boundary. The overwhelming majority of them will not get to stay, because they are in the Key walk zone and outside of any neighborhood boundary that could be drawn around ASFS.
