[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are parents worried about it? Einstein kids will attend close by school which won't be over crowded. If there are enough smart kids(I am sure there are), then higher level courses will run. If not then it won't run and those kids need to go to regional magnet, just like any other region. Is there anything special about Einstein's situation? I mean in new model, it will be situation for all schools.[/quote] I am an Einstein parent and an inbound homeowner. My concern at this point is that the school's FARMS rate will go even higher once they redo boundaries. We have lived in our house since 1999. FARMS rate at Einstein when we moved in was less than 25%. Small high school with a 47%+ or higher FARMS rate is no bueno.[/quote] If you have owned your house since 1999, you probably have an extraordinarily low mortgage or maybe your house is paid off. It’s probably worth much much more than you paid. I get if you prefer to stay, but you do have the option of selling and moving. Things change. Jobs change, health situations change, school composition and offerings change. You do have choices. [/quote]
