[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just a few points of the Nottingham analogy. First, Nottingham was facing complete dissolution of the school. Not a boundary change. ASF is complaining about boundary shifts. Second, Nottingham did make an effort not to trash other schools/families/children.  And third, we did mock them pretty mercilessly (and appropriately) for their ridiculous petitions addressed to Beyer etc. 
That said, the ASF drama is far more embarrassing to all of you. Parents, principal, the teacher who showed up and picked sides at the SB meeting. You are all ruining the reputation of what used to be considered a nice school. Ick. [/quote]

Removing half the school is not far from dissolutions. Hardly just boundary shift. [/quote]

DP. It is a boundary shift. ASFS is current a neighborhood school and is expected to remain a neighborhood school. Nottingham was proposed to change to an option school, and would no longer exist as a neighborhood school. These are different things. No one said Nottingham was dissolved when Discovery opened and Nottingham lost almost 40% of its student population, because that would have been absurd.[/quote]

Didn't the Nottingham principal disappear?  Why was the ASF principal allowed to take sides in the process?[/quote]
