[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how people keep trying to turn this into a debate about "privilege", parking and traffic when the real issue is the 1400 children (ages 4-10 from BOTH Murch and Lafayette). Just because those numbers "might work" for a HIGH SCHOOL, does not mean that 1400 kids is good for elementary school. Try to remember what kinds of things and places scared or upset you (or even just made you a little uncomfortable) when you were 6yrs old versus 16years old. There is huge difference in young kids versus teenagers or tweens. Anyone who has a child at either of those schools should be highly concerned about the day to day for their own child in that environment. Some neighbors may be concerned about ancillary issues (which are real issues), but, honestly, what parent in their right mind wants their 4, 5, 6, or 7 year old or even 10yr old on a campus with 1400 other kids (and that doesn't even factor in the numbers with teachers, staff, volunteers, and regular park goers (who probably bring  dogs). I believe there are other options on the table for Murch...[/quote]
