[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should SA accept the status quo? [/quote]u

Because they can’t convince a parent with a kid who walks to Discovery that a bus to Randolph is a better option.[/quote]

Always the extreme examples.[/quote]

DP. No one ever offers concrete suggestions in the middle. All rhetoric, no ideas.[/quote]

There has to be a better option, but like you said, it's always to the extremes.

Look at the CC.[/quote]

Not necessarily. Moving the immersion programs to Barcroft/Carlin Springs while having Ashlawn cross 50 seemed like a promising step, and the idea seemed to have support from many corners.[/quote]

I really hope that idea gets some serious consideration in the next go-round. It would not solve all of the problems, but could go a long way towards equalizing some schools. Demographics preclude any option that would help all schools, but overall this plan seems like a win-win. Also, the proximity could allow those two schools to perhaps share resources in a way they can't in their current locations. [/quote]

I hope so too, but APS really flubbed it. They showed their hand with that f'n spreadsheet and not only lost trust wth the community, now critics of the idea know what's on the table and have two years to lobby against it.[/quote]
