[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me it seems like a lottery/enrollment overhaul would fix crowding issues and boundaries wouldn't have to be touched. Two thoughts that never made sense to me: 1.) When you move out of bounds, why do you get to stay in that previous school? 2.) When you lottery into an elementary school, why do you get automatic enrollment into the feeder middle/high schools? I'm sure someone will say these rules were invented to provide at-risk kids an advantage, but based on this thread, it sounds like higher SES families benefit as much if not more. [/quote] I agree with this 100% and have always thought this is the #1 thing that needs addressed. Couple that with a set aside for at -risk, gives more opportunities for elementary level, middle, and high school level. [/quote]
