[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It does seem very shortsighted to be doing this now, before the boundaries discussion. A much cheaper, and somewhat obvious, way to reduce the crowding at Janney would be to move some of those kids to Hearst. [/quote] They've already laid down the ground rule that all existing families will be grandfathered. So any change in boundaries isn't going to make a difference for years. If you look at the Master Facilities Plan, there are population projections on page 55 (Figure 4.7). Janney is the only elementary school in Cluster 11. Elementary aged population is projected to go from 1230 in 2012 to 1421 in 2017 1645 in 2022. That's 34% growth in the next ten years. The school is already crowded. Shrinking the boundaries can't fix that. I agree that the timing isn't helpful for the boundary review commission.[/quote]
