[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is breaking up a walk zone preferable to creating a new island? That's a more expensive approach from a cost standpoint. With an island, you are taking kids already on a bus and driving them somewhere else. Breaking up a walk zone requires new buses. I'd rather see APS spend that money on building more high school seats.[/quote] That's a good question, but I don't have the answer and neither did facilitators last night. I just know that contiguity was such an issue for the HS boundaries, that it seems like they won't accept a scenario that doesn't have contiguity for the MS boundaries. If they allow it for this boundary decision, how do they then justify last year's bad decision? So I think the better approach is not to start with scenario we know will be rejected. I think it's stupid, too, but I didn't write these rules. [/quote]
