[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one said shut it down. They did say that HB needs to take more kids, though. There shouldn't be a private school option (HB) while all the other schools bust at the seams. [/quote] To be fair, some did say shut it down and make it a regular large high school. Nevertheless, a variety of programs that serve different types of learners is a good thing. What some are saying, me included, is that those programs' admissions should be set up so they are most likely to serve the kids who would most benefit from them - not the kids who would do equally well in their districted school.[/quote] I do believe that students should need to apply in or be recommended, but that’s not how it works. Plus, with a system so overcrowded, we don’t have the luxury to support HB. It’s not an equal education- most students learn better in smaller classrooms and uncrowded shared spaces. Now if APS would open a 4th HS instead of these mega schools…[/quote]
