[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This process is total overkill for a move that will affect 100 kids. Save your powder for the real redistricting in a couple of years. [/quote] Except that it matters to those 400 kids and their friends that they will leave behind. They aren't just numbers on a piece of paper, they are real students. [/quote] But there is a limited set of options, so they should just come up with some options, list the pros and cons, have some way to get some feedback, and make a decision. All these giant meetings, the tool, the process....its just a lot for what is actually a fairly small change. It tires everyone out and we have a hard time getting engagement on the many, many issues facing the school system. People use their energy on things like this, that seem like a big deal, and then other things get ignored until they blow up. [b]Minor boundary adjustments should be something we are treating as routine and administrative[/b], not "all hands on deck" massive public input processes. [/quote] I agree. Leaders should lead and make the unpopular decisions, instead of leaving it to a community that thinks nothing of segregation when little Johnny may not get to go all the way through ES, MS, and HS with all of the same kids.
