[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not realistic to change Ytown through boundary. I’m in south Arlington and even I understand that.
Fight for a better spread of AH if that’s your goal. 
A new hs at CC could help shoulder some of the burden off Wakefield in a meaningful way. Even if it’s 10% reduction of Wakefield farms. 
That would be significant. 
Quit being ungrateful West Pike residents. [/quote]

We're mid-Pike, so I don't know where we'd wind up, CC I think but who knows. Even so, I am opposed to the idea of taking the entire SE portion of the county to a school at the CC. That will not amount to a 10% reduction in fr/lfor Wakefield, because the school will be back-filled with all the kids in the Arlington Mill neighborhood currently zoned to W-L. And if you take all of SE to the CC, there won't be enough UMC neighborhoods in the SW left zoned to Wakefiled to balance the student who would be added. As long as you don't take the CC boundary all the way down to 395, there can still be contiguous CC and Wakefiled boundaries that may not be 100% balanced, but that don't push Wakefield to be even more highly segregated. Can we at least agree on that? [/quote]
