[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, so ranked choice… You realize (even more) people who can afford it will flee to private schools, right? And what happens then? I don’t think you’ll get the outcomes you’re hoping for. People keep saying that being around well-resourced kids has a positive effect on the rest of the student body. What happens when they all leave?[/quote] Or maybe more would stay[/quote] Sure. You saw how Nottingham mommies behaved when they thought they might have to — gasp! — move to Jamestown![/quote] You can structure rank choice in a way where people in walkzones get priority/guaranteed attendance [/quote] Ok, so when all of those schools are near capacity (because those students don’t want to leave their neighborhood schools), a few kids from SA can join them, and — then what? Again, who is choosing our low performing schools? Because someone has to go there.[/quote]
