[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t all high school students leave campus when free like they do at HB?[/quote]

Has anyone brought that up at the other schools?  What is their response?[/quote]

That was the case until the mid 80s as previously explained. Now open campus is limited to seniors at lunch at the three comprehensive high schools. I’m not sure if Arlington Tech has open campus for lunch or throughout the day like HB. [/quote]

It wasn’t previously explained. It simply said that the open campus was removed in the 80s, not WHY they haven’t made the open campus experience equitable between all Arlington high schools. Why  give some students special treatment, esp when allowing students to leave for lunch would help alleviate overcrowding.[/quote]

School board members pre covid shared your interest in expanding open campus. It may be time to bring this topic up again. All three comprehensive high schools are near both homes and commercial areas. And with one longer lunch period (or at most two) it is a feasible option. The W-L annex cafeteria was removed from the project, so W-L would benefit from open campus for all grades, as it has just the one large cafeteria and other common areas where students can eat or study at lunch.
