[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this has to be mothers who made all their friends through their kids' friends and are anxious about their grown up gaggle being broken up.  I can see no other reason why people would be so over invested in this stuff.  The kids are and will be fine.  These are all great schools.[/quote]

Huh? You think separating kids from their friend groups every 2 years, reshuffling commute patterns, and battling for extended day slots is no big deal? If I wanted to have that kind of life I’d have signed up for a military or consulting gig, both of which pay better or have better benefits than the stable job I chose for myself because I wanted stability.

I don’t see how your job has anything to do with school boundaries in a large urban school district.    Arlington isn’t Mayberry, as badly as some people want it to be.[/quote]

Also the idea that your life isn't stable.  What?  You live in the same house, with the same neighbors, have the same job,  shop at the same stores, buy your wine to drown your sorrows at the same damn place.  Nothing else about your or your child's life is changing.  They will go to a new lovely school with their neighbors.  That's it.  [/quote]
