Why anyone in north Arlington  would care one way or another baffles me, but I live in south Arlington, where the differences between neighboring neighborhood schools and option schools can be very large. [/quote]

When the dust settles, the elementary schools, including options, will be even more economically segregated than now. It's going to be a really striking chart and I can't wait for arlnow to publish it.[/quote]

What do you think they should have done?[/quote]

I think if the 1% wants options they can get their nannies to drive a little farther south, that's what I think.[/quote]

But then what happens to all of the kids in South Arlington who want a neighborhood school or don't get into an option school, but there's a massive seat deficit because all of the option programs have been crammed in there? Are you going to make them get on buses north instead of letting them go to school in their own neighborhoods?[/quote]
