[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The board has scheduled the boundary study hearing for Thurs., Nov. 7th at 6:00 pm.[/quote]

Reminder that this public hearing is tonight. Is anyone planning to go and present any objections to the recommendation? And if so, what will you be arguing?[/quote]

Didn't you have to pre-register to present testimony at the hearing? In any case, I don't see a lot of room to object.  The Superintendent basically went with the simplest option provided to him (move the closest two zones over the MK/PC).  There wasn't a ton of wiggle room here.  I also think that, considering the contentiousness surrounding the other boundary study going on, the Board is going to want an easy decision.[/quote]

I agree. At the board meeting the other day, Pat O'Neill mentioned receiving a letter from the Northwood-Four Corners civic association, but she didn't have it with her and didn't describe what it said.[/quote]

There was hardly any testimony about Forest Knolls at the hearing. Two people suggested that all current FK students get grandfathered in, so reassignments would start with only next year's kindergarteners going to Montgomery Knolls. Judy Docca was the only board member who asked a follow-up question about that. Seems unlikely to go anywhere, given the investments they've made in the two additions at MK/PC.[/quote]
