[quote=Anonymous]Sorry 15:44 you are wrong.  First, its not the OP that raised this issue.  I raised it and I don't even live in the Murch or Hearst zone.  I'm just an involved DC parent who thinks that the policies of our government should be fair and looking at the maps for this proposal I don't think its right and I don't think its supported by the information, explanation or data.

Second, you are wrong on the fact.  I am not talking about the Lafayette move.  I'm talking about the swap of Murch and Hearst blocks.  I just maped it on milage app and there are blocks on 36th street that are .3 miles from Murch being moved to Hearst which is more then twice that distance away.  And at the same time the same plan proposes to move blocks that are currently in Hearst to Murch that are .9 miles away from Murch.  There are also blocks currently in Murch that are .3 miles from Murch, .4 miles from Janney, and .7 miles from Hearst.  These are just facts.  People are being sent to their third closest school under the current plan while others that are further from any of those three schools are being rerouted to Murch.  I think that's wrong and I don't think our city government should do something like that.[/quote]
