[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard someone on the radio today who said the fairest proposed system would be to randomly assign students to particular DCPS schools, to assure a mixture of more affluent students and disadvantaged students. So a student in AU Park (and their siblings) might be assigned a spot in Ward 8 and a kid from Barry Farm could go to Janney.[/quote]

I really, really hope they do it. It is the fairest thing![/quote]

And the easiest way to get affluent parents leaving the district in droves, eroding the tax base and making schools worse.[/quote]

Seriously.  This is not going to happen.  Please stop perpetuating this myth.  To continue to do so is just shi* stirring.[/quote]

I think it may be more likely than you think. It may start with making no boundaries for high schools and then cheap down into elementary. Kind if like boiling lobsters slowly so they don't freak out.[/quote]

I repeat.  A fantasy  (it is a stupid idea that doesn't work).  To suggest otherwise is nothing more than shi* stirring.  [/quote]
