[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many children live east of Wisconsin and go to Janney.  I know at least three families off the top of my head.  Crossing a large, busy street (esp during morning rush hour) is not ideal but many people do it every day.  [b]That said, it does make more sense to have Wisconsin be the Janney/Murch boundary than 41st Street.[/b]  That would shrink Janney's boundaries but increase those for Murch.  The Murch boundaries would have to shrink in another area.

at least a few streets of the southern murch border would likely have to move to hearst in order for murch to accomodate any former janney families from east of wisconsin north of +/- nebraska.  really both janney and murch could stand to reduce their  populations by 50 - 60 kids.  An add'l 120 IB kids for Hearst on top of the 50 - 60 that already attend could still leave a decent number of OOB spots at Hearst assuming total school population still capped at just under 300.

of course none of these numbers are exact in any way because any change will be phased in / kids and sibs will be grandfathered etc but in general this seems like a logical direction....[/quote]
