[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, the geniuses don’t realize Ashlawn’s demographics will change to be a lot more like McKinley’s. It won’t be a 7 for long.  Also, dominion hills property is pretty stable. McK houses aren’t worth more than Ashlawn houses. [/quote]

Lol  keep telling yourself that, 17% low income vs 5%, anything over 10 is a shit show[/quote]

[b]Most of Ashlawn's low income families will be rezoned to other schools under Option 1.[/b] [/quote]

Supposition.  No one will ever know until boundary changes [b]after[/b] these school moves. Big worry: these school changes reduce options for later boundary changes and result in overcrowding in some schools and under capacity at others.  [/quote]

....so, let's do nothing, and have 3 elementary schools (Reed, Mck, and Ashlawn) within less than 2 miles of each other, and draw weird tentacle boundaries to fill them?  And leave current, known seat deficits on the other end of the county?  Yeah, THAT won't reduce options for later changes or result in different utilization across schools... :roll:  The "but the solution isnt perfect! Let's wait!" argument, which boils down to "don't do it and effect us, screw other people instead with the status quo," is really getting old.[/quote]
