[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP who thinks the no boundaries idea is simple-minded fails to recognize that it's not only upper NW that has seen skyrocketing property values. We live in Petworth. Bought 12 years ago for $200K...our house is not worth $600K. I'm not convinced your "plummeting home values" argument and move out of the district argument hold water. [/quote]

Yes, and a similar house in Janney is worth over $1 million, at least in part because of the certainty in school options.  Remove that, and value goes down.  This is not rocket science.

Some of you seem to think that because the notice didn't specifically say that eliminating boundaries is not an option, it is on the table.  That's ridiculous, but moving on - the political and practical realities are such that it is not an option.  Period.

But maybe you are all right, and they will do away with boundaries.  If that's the case, I'll come back and admit my error, and you can all call me simple-minded.  [/quote]
