[quote=Anonymous]They are setting boundaries after opt-in is done probably to find an option with least resistance.  After setting boundaries,  if some people question the decision,  they can say that: it's that way because your area has a high number of opt-in students which indicates that majority of students in the area wants to go to the new high school.  Setting boundaries this way creates problems for the following years,  although it's a politically "smart" approach.

[quote=Anonymous]If I had a say, the boundaries would have been set in January and the only option would have been to opt out, but I am not. I can only speculate based on what the info that has been put out.

My only point in the opting in was that it is only meant to be this year because of how they screwed up the process. People ar eposting as if the opt in option from this year means the school will be a magnate (sp) school. It doesn’t. It is a unique option for this year.

Families at Chantilly that are not happy with the size of the school had the choice to opt in. We don’t know if they did or they did not. The SLHS PTA was told that 40-45 9th graders from SLHS opted in to Western. Those are the only numbers we have heard.

Chantilly will see kids move in 2 years when the boundaries are set.

Do I think things can shift? Yes, they have been shifting this entire time. I wish they would release the numbers, I am curious and I think it would hel with speculation. But that is me. I am guessing that we will find out how many kids opted in at the meeting  in a few weeks.[/quote][/quote]
