[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m assuming these are joke posts. [/quote] Not the PPs, but I think it’s not too far from what the reality would look like. Academically stronger and/or higher SES kids would end up with preferential access to class and activities in a way that’s glaringly obvious. [/quote] There is a real constituency in favor of the approach PP cited. If you just go to a shift, people will be skeptical. But if you demonstrate the haves will benefit, then those people plus fiscal hawks will let you ram this through. No surprise Libby Garvey has suggested a shift schedule. The people I described above are the Vihstadt-Garvey coalition. When John blows away the Democrat in a “Blue Wave” election this Fall, watch for a third County Board member to join in and encourage shifts as the way to move forward with limited funds.[/quote]
