[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted this before but allow me to try again: would 'Partner-School Option' have a chance to be successful? Match up one S school with one N school and let families choose or lottery which one to go to and bus both ways. I think two buses would probably do.[/quote]

really, who at Nottingham or Discovery is going to voluntarily ride a bus to Barcroft or Randolph? Families move to NA because they’ve decided “the schools” are worth the housing premium. [/quote]

It could help fill seats in under enrolled N school by pairing up one overcrowding S school, say, Discovery & Randolph, without changing multiple boundaries. And if it stays 'one directional' forever so be it. But it reaches the critical mass it can be successful in other aspects too.[/quote]

I would love to see something like this. If kids who need extended day could get dropped off or picked up at the partner school that would be great too. [/quote]

Sure why not? It'd make families happy without extra cost. Let families choose what work best for them.[/quote]
