[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] APS can control starting at #11 and it should. Option schools only help diversify the option schools. They further segregate the neighborhood schools. [/quote] But what if APS took steps to make lottery schools about the program rather than the demographics and the size of the school? I know people who picked ATS because they didn't want to send their (white, UMC) kid to their (predominantly nonwhite, ED) neighborhood school. But if ATS had been bigger than their neighborhood school, they'd have been less interested. Ditto HB transfers. I think making W-L significantly larger than the other HSs is likely to reduce demand for transfers to the IB program among families that just want their kids NOT to be at their neighborhood school.[/quote]
