[quote=Anonymous]"In the case of ASFS, that is an unreasonable expectation. You aren't losing your walkable neighborhood school. It has not been a neighborhood school for decades now."

Except that it was a neighborhood school (Page) for many decades before becoming ATS (briefly) and then ASFS.  And when ASFS first started, anyone in the neighborhood (and county) could attend.  It wasn't until the Orange Line corridor exploded with young families and capacity became an issue that ASFS had to start turning folks away.  Most families who can walk have been allowed (until the last few years) to go to ASFS.

So big picture, it was and (arguably has been) a neighborhood school for more years when compared to the years it has been Key's alternative school.

For all those folks who moved close to Key because they were "guaranteed" to go to ASFS, that was a pretty big gamble.  Boundaries can change at any time.  Your best bet is to have Key move to Nottingham and then make Key a neighborhood school. [/quote]
