[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So is Barcroft/Alcova going to WL or Penrose/Arl. Heights? Those seem to be pretty much the only options.

It will probably be Penrose and Arlington View—the two neighborhoods that were rezoned from WL to WF in 2017 (not sure the exact year).[/quote]

Disagree. I think it will be Barcroft-Alcova, given stability, ES and MS feeder patterns, and also diversity, since you’d be moving more white and high SES students out of Wakefield if the former were moved again. Moving those Penrose/AV PUs back doesn’t align with the factors considered. But it may be a numbers game. How many do they need to move and how many kids live in specific PUs may be the deciding factor. [/quote]

Barcroft/Alcova doesn't align at the MS level.  Alcova goes to TJ while Barcroft goes to Kenmore.  If stability is a real factor in their proposals, Barcroft shouldn't even be under consideration.  Besides, there are probably too many kids in the Barcroft neighborhood, especially if Barcroft Apartments is considered part of that, to move to WL.[/quote]
