[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a south Arlington parent I really don’t much care which school they turn option. I stay home, so getting my kid up there for school is easy enough. [b]If it keeps the lottery competition at bay, all the better.[/b] I just need a usable school.[/quote]

That is very selfish.

And you’re admitting that most people prefer to go to a nearby school. You are really the exception.

Np here. It doesn't seem that selfish to me. The poster is honest about wanting the same things that mc parents everywhere want - a well resourced school that isn't largely focused on social services, English language education that his/her kid doesn't need. Who wants to send their kid to a school where everyone says, oh, they'll be fine, let's focus our efforts on the kids who really need the help.[/quote]

Yes, and it’s not only affecting the north. We are likely getting rezoned from Henry unless the boundary is kept the same (to Drew, maybe? Not clear at this point). So we are learning just as well as you guys are that buying a house doesn’t guarantee you a school, as much as we’d all like to believe it does. [/quote]
