[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they want to improve crowding at Wilson, what other choice would they have then take out Hardy? Seems pretty likely, right?[/quote]

[b]Or they could say that only IB folks have a right to attend Wilson. If you got into Adams, Hardy, or Deal or their feeders through the OOB lottery, or if you moved OOB after starting to attend any of those schools, you'd have to lottery in to any available seats at Wilson.[/b]

Or they could cut Bancroft and Shepherd out of Deal (send Bancroft to CHEC or Roosevelt; send Shepherd to Coolidge).

Or send Hyde and some others to Cardozo along with Francis-Stevens and Ross.

Or make Wilson a citywide test-in school.

Or do a citywide lottery for all high schools.

All of these would cause a huge amount of political tumult. But they would certainly right-size Wilson.[/quote]

your above bolded option was the only way to get into any WOTP school until Rhee changed the law in 2009 - you used to have to lottery into ES, MS and HS if you were OOB.  These rights have existed for so few years I will never understand why the boundary folks lacked the political guts to abolish or just grandfather them.  Wilson overcrowding problem solved, presto![/quote]
