[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]0P here. I am not against out of boundary students per se. What I am against is the overcrowding in our high-performing schools because parents of low performing schools won't take the hard and uncomfortable actions to increase standards at their schools. [/quote] "Increasing standards" is code for "increasing high SES students." that's what makes the sought after schools sought after. Given that we are talking about public schools here, the administration would be working to make all schools good. Parents shouldn't be required to work at no cost to get a good education for their children in their own neighborhood. This is not an easy task, but it is the primary job of the school district, not the parents. The parents job is to pay taxes and provide a good home for their children and to make sure they get to school ready to learn.[/quote]
