[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here, I think I need to be more clear.

we opted in to Western but our child will be doing course selection for his base school. He won’t be doing course selection for Western. I think the reason for that is that western doesn’t have a staff yet, so there is no one to meet with the kids and plan courses, and because there is the possibility that some kids will not end up at Western. Having the kids select courses at their base school makes sure that they are included in that schools process.

Doesn't this cause some turmoil in planning for the base schools, though? Like if a significant number of kids choose Western instead of their base, won't it result in potential destaffing? [/quote]

Yes, especially for the Japanese program at South Lakes. As I understand it, a lot of the JI kids from Fox Mill are opting in at Western. The count I have says over half.[/quote]

How do you have a count?

At the open house they said they are going to take the electives chosen by the opt ins for their base HS and those are going to be the ones they offer. Plus a couple Stem classes.[/quote]
They don't have a count, they are making things up because they want Fox Mill zoned to Western. It's silly.[/quote]
