[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The logistics would be a mess. Also--as some people have already pointed out, and I think it is a huge deal--what does it do to a community when kids who live on the same block all go to different schools? [/quote] Many communities like this in DC already.[/quote] They were, but they are turning around (yes, I used the taboo term "turning around"), with more and more families making the leap to trust their neighborhood elementary, but also rally together and be involved. Families on their evening stroll EOTP NW stopping to chat about upcoming school events and volunteer opportunities, right now often with babies so young they didn't even enter this latest lottery. This would all be wasted, and everyone will take a step back from caring, if we destroy the neighborhood school certainty.[/quote]
