[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of “off track” and “needs intensive support” at the elementary level. [/quote]

At the high poverty schools. I would bet the groups struggling are poor Black and Hispanic kids with little support at home.[/quote]

And, this people, is why they want to redraw the boundaries.  It hides the problem rather than fixes it.[/quote]

This is a common assertion and yet it’s not what is happening with this boundary review.  [/quote]

The initial goals of the boundary review was to try and rebalance some of the high FARMs schools by moving kids from the FARMs schools to a nearby school with fewer FARMs kids and vice versa. The bigger focus was on HS than the ES, ie Lewis and West Springfield and Herndon and Langley.  That was dropped pretty quickly because parents saw it coming and immediately raised issues with it. Toss in the election and the school board moved away from that.  [/quote]

Please provide support for this claim.  Otherwise it’s just your taking credit for winning a battle that was not fought.  [/quote]
