[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools don’t just swap.  This is conceptually and intellectually dishonest.  Certain families want to be assigned to a different facility than the one they chose to enroll in.  Seriously, in the history of boundary discussions, have you ever seen the mythical unicorn now being referred to as a swap?  I don’t have skin in the game, but pretending this is normal and something one just does, is ridiculous.[/quote]

Has there ever been a case of a neighborhood school located entirely outside of its boundary? No. Nobody is trying to take someone else's school. Key as an option school just doesn't make sense based on the criteria that staff was evaluating. Is ASFS the best location for the Immersion program? Probably not, but let's not pretend Key is either. I think if Key families could come to the table with a more favorable location in mind for a move in 2020 or 2021, they might be heard. But demanding to stay in their current location isn't going to work. [/quote]
