[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geographically and logically, KP and GP ES will likely be zoned for Woodward.  The question is whether Farmland and Luxmanor will be included too, because that area also used to attend Woodward before it closed.  The presentations make it seem like Woodward will include a few Wheaton/Einstein ES to relieve DCC crowding.  That leaves WJ with some open space to relieve some crowding at BCC and Whitman.  If that's the case, the new WJ will probably be similar to the current WJ and Woodward will probably be similar to RM when they absorbed Ritchie Park in the 80's.  Similarly-sized homes in Horizon Hill are slightly newer and have better layouts than those in Fox Hills West, but the prices are always off by 50-100k because FHW is zoned to Wootton.  You can also see a similar pricing differential in Montgomery Square north (RM) and south (Churchill) of Montrose.  Your best bet to stay at WJ would be Ashburton or Wyngate, but in the end, it's still a bet because nothing's official.  Crapshoot.[/quote]

I'm not sure how we're defining "geographically and logically," since this is all speculation.  But it seems to me the most logical way to split the WJ feeder schools would be to have the schools feeding to NBMS (Ashburton, KP, and Wyngate) go on to WJ, and the schools feeding to Tilden (Farmland, GP, Luxmanor) go on to Woodward.  Then add in one or two more contiguous elementaries from whichever direction needs the capacity relief.[/quote]
