[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having other options would reduce the overcrowding at Wilson/Deal feeders, and that would reduce inflow of students that they have to admit.[/quote]
Can you please explain how that works?  I do not understand how that fits with PP's point.  Sorry for being slow to see your thinking.[/quote]

The number of OOB students attending Deal and Wilson is not fixed at a certain number.  They have to serve IB kids and feeder graduates.  (Only those who want to attend, of course.)  So, if other schools are better, people may voluntarily choose to attend them for elementary and middle, and that reduces the number of students Deal and Wilson are obligated to serve.  The crowding is driven by IB and feeder rights kids.  They are not just overcrowding the school by letting in a ton of kids that they have no obligation to.  I could be wrong, as I am not in the feeder pattern at all, but that is how I understand the idea.   Someone please speak up if I am wrong.[/quote]
