But there are families that live in bounds for Murch, that purchased homes 2 blocks from the school but who don't have anyone there yet to get grandfathered in....[/quote]

Then, they won't be sad about "disruption" in their morning commute, losing friends they've already made at Murch, having half the Boy Scout Troop #342 go to one school and half go to a different school etc.

It'll all be new to them, and the kids they'll conceive someday.[/quote]

Actually you'll have kids who know each other in the same apartment building being sent to different schools.[/quote]

School boundaries do change and communities continue to thrive. I really don't understand people continuing to give these rationalizations. Your above scenario will involve kids of different ages who will have new friends at their new school. They will be fine.

Should the boundaries be laid in a yellow brick road to never be moved? Or, after 40 years, should there be some minor adjustments? There really are bigger issues to be concerned about. I just wish all the DC parents could come together to focus on the big, important issues like the threat of a city-wide lottery. That is a real problem.[/quote]
