I agree. Leaders should lead and make the unpopular decisions, instead of leaving it to a community that thinks nothing of segregation when little Johnny may not get to go all the way through ES, MS, and HS with all of the same kids. [/quote]

Oh please don't sound so holier than thou.  [b]It's not wrong that many people don't put demographic diversity at the top of their list when balancing multiple competing factors.  To me it's a nice-to-have, for my own child I have other factors that are more important.  In this case, many families zoned for W-L worry about losing IB access, which was a prime reason they bought in a W-L zone. For some, they do want community continuity for their children and families.  For some, they see no reason to attend a school 50% further away when there is at least one and possibly two HS closer.  And yes, some people do look at a school's performance or FARMS rate and want to send their kid to a school that is already high-performing rather than having their kid be one of those there to help improve it.

FWIW, My planning unit is not in play this go-around but I'm watching the issue closely. [/quote]

And that, folks, is the definition of white privilege. [/quote]
