[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the boundaries options, it seems like Option B is the best for both the Einstein and Northwood zones. Option C has a large decrease in enrollment for Einstein, and Options A and D leave Northwood at only 85% utilization, which I think doesn't make sense from an ROI perspective on a brand-new building.

Also Option B would put Blair at 91% utilization, leaving room for its popular magnets. The other options have it at over 100% utilization with just resident students.

For performing arts, I think I agree with the consensus in keeping performing arts at Einstein and putting the humanities magnet at Northwood.[/quote]

And waste a brand new auditorium with professional lighting and sound? That's using resources well.[/quote]

Moving a program just because there is a new shiny space doesn't make sense.  How much of the demand in the community?  Will there be enough slots for Einstein students to go?  What about the Einstein students who do VAC and music/theater, as many are interconnected with the multiple programs?  A fancy, shiny space doesn't make the program; it's the people.  [/quote]
