[quote=Anonymous]If there are 5 schools that were overcrowded, the goal was to solve overcrowding, and the plan does so, then the plan is a success. You might not like the plan--heaven knows you don't, and as someone whose neighborhood was also kicked out of Wilson I don't either--but it solved the problem. And overcrowding isn't a made-up problem, even if it only affects a few schools. Any money spent on trailers in Upper NW is money that can't be spent on kids with fewer advantages. There was a second problem DME explicitly wanted to address, and she mentioned it throughout the process: the fact that some neighborhoods had rights to multiple schools or to one school via feeder pattern and a different one via neighborhood (Shepherd Park with Wilson and Coolidge; parts of SE and SW with Eastern and Wilson). That problem was also solved.[/quote]
