[quote=Anonymous]"most people" wut? lol. Show me where in this thread any two people have called for making HB an opt-out lottery or mentioned "pamphlets" because I believe this amazing thread momentum is in your head. I think PP is looking at HB all wrong. Here's an alternative take: Somehow APS has basically tricked all of these "rich white families" to send their privileged Larlas in hubzone buses to a school that has fewer resources than their zoned schools (doesn't cost taxpayers more, has one field, no pool, no real sports, fewer class offerings, fewer teachers, no counselors, and does not help them get into a good college comparatively). APS has basically pulled off a miracle of the loaves and fishes. They had a building they couldn't force kids to attend school in, so they made it attractive to some families without spending extra money per child. Of course PP is still mad, but it's an example of APS doing what it could with what it was given.[/quote]
