[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The shills for advocating disparate communities be bused into Hutchison HS are probably lower middle-class Asian Coates/McNair parents who see the writing on the wall given Hutchison's immediate surrounding neighborhoods and want to bus in Oak Hill/Floris/Fox Mill to desperately improve their future school's ranking. I say this as an Asian myself. They have the most to gain by proposing this and the most to lose if the proximity standard is utilized as it should be. [/quote]

OMG - let's not make kids from "disparate communities" attend the same schools!  They might end up in the same classrooms, eat lunch together, or even date!

I don't care for the above. My concern is that if the need for "balancing" schools keeps moving in the direction it is going we will have kids from Mount Vernon bused to Langley and Langley to Lewis. Where does it end? The ends of simply diversification do not warrant such cost on resources. Outside of really Madison/Oakton/Woodson/Mclean/ Langley, all FCPS kids go to pretty diverse high schools as is, and even if Hutchinson HS goes through there are still a lot of FRM kids at South Lakes the Flors/Fox Mill kids will be hanging around, and the same for the Oak Hill kids at Chantilly with and as of currently. But nice try suggesting differently. [/quote]

AGAIN no one but YOU are suggesting bussing situations like this. [/quote]
