[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish the staff would just do away with all option programs, draw lines that reduce transportation and just go that way. We can't even hire enough bus drivers here! This option BS is a relic of the past.[/quote]

So you propose further segregation? Cool. Just call it what it is. [/quote]

If people choose to self segregate, so be it. [/quote]

It's not like they have a choice.  Where's the affordable housing in the north?  [/quote]

What I don’t understand about calls for more affordable housing elsewhere is that unless it takes away from AH in the areas where it is currently concentrated, it changes nothing about the percentages in those schools. It’s not like AH lobbyists are going to let up in the south if you sprinkle some into the north.  [/quote]

Because it’s not an unlimited pool of money.  If they spend money in one area, they don’t have it to spend in another. So, if they move forward on housing in NA where there isn’t any, they can’t also continue to build even more in the areas of SA that aren’t lacking in AH options. Doesn’t mean anything gets torn down, but maybe they don’t do phases 2-4 on the site where they already built phase 1? How about that? [/quote]
