[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know any rising sophomores opting in?
Our base school is not great, but I don’t know any sophomores opting in to Western. They just don’t seem interested about attending a school with limited clases and activities and having to go to the base school for sports. 
And the fewer that opt in, the fewer others want to follow.
I wish they had just settled the boundaries and made everyone go.[/quote]

Yes, I know a bunch are from SLHS. I have neighbors whose kids will be moving and they told me that many of their kids friends opted in. Honestly, I know rising Juniors who are annoyed that they don't have the choice.

I would be surprised if they get 500 sophomores but they will have a decent number.[/quote]

There were only 40-45 kids out of approx. 607 students from SLHS that asked to be at Western for ninth grade as reported at last SLHS PTSA meeting when SB rep. shared data. That’s only about 15% of ninth graders and some have changed their minds and spoken with counselors to deselect after the deadline. The percentage will most likely decrease again.
