[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The upper and lower idea, while possibly good for demographics, is a logistical nightmare for parents of more than one kid in elementary school. It won’t happen. [/quote] It's not. They could stagger bell schedules and have the same busses go to both schools. For extended day, have a bus taking kids from upper school to lower school. Have two busses (and early and late) shuttle between the two schools for dismissal and before school so that you have people walking to school if they are in the walk zone for either school, or just dropping off kids at one school. Its only annoying if you need to pick up in the middle of the day (not the norm) or exactly after school to make an activity or something. Parties/halloween might be annoying, but that shouldn't be a main motivation, especially since the benefits of balancing demographics really outweigh the inconvenience. [/quote]
