[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don’t get is what they think APS should do. They either further segregation or make a boundary that is not convenient for every single fr/l student in the entire area, which is impossible anyway. It’s not like all the people in Rosslyn are used to having a walkable school. Moving the N of Lee Hwy units to Taylor doesn’t make their lives any more difficult. They are on a bus to school in every scenario. And sending all of LV to ASFS or Taylor just perpetuates the segregation needlessly, and it doesn’t even improve proximity and walkability.  It meets none of the criteria they are supposed to consider. That would be giving the rich people what they want. They didn’t kick immersion out of Key, they never wanted to go to Key.[/quote]

Some of the people complaining the loudest flat out don’t want Key to move, and are lobbying hard to: 1. Halt the current process under the guise of avoiding inequality, so that they can: 2. Then get the school board to revisit the Key move.[/quote]

100% this.  They could care less about the actual boundaries, they just don't want Key to move.  It's also important to their self concept that they are 'immersion parents' and view themselves as carrying about others, so they continue to pretend to themselves that they are looking out for someone else.  Its all about stopping the Key move for their own convenience.  I have lost all respect for Key parents.[/quote]
