[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So it has now been over a week and all 7 options are still up in the survey.  Does that mean they are all still on the table?  Has anyone heard anything about this?[/quote]

I wouldn't expect them to remove the options. It's still valid to submit feedback on any option, as they have other elements that aren't related to SSIMS.[/quote]

But shouldn't there be some language somewhere, on the website or at least in an email, saying *something* about the implications of the vote on the boundary options?[/quote]

It's not a vote, so there are no implications.[/quote]

The Board of Ed absolutely did vote to push back the decision to close SSIMS a couple years.  And that absolutely does have implications for what boundary options are or are not on the table.  [/quote]

Maybe, but maybe not. It’s very unclear. The HS boundaries could be any if A-G or some variation thereof. As for middle school, I and many other posters think that given the uncertainty it makes sense to keep kids where they are until the decision is made.[/quote]

I agree that middle-schoolers should be kept where they are for now, but it is not clear whether that will be possible and which option(s) to select on the survey if that is what we would most want.  That is why they need to post some clarification.

Also everyone who feels that middle schoolers (or at least Silver Spring/TP middle schoolers) should be kept where they are for now should be contacting the Board of Ed ASAP to say that.  Otherwise I don't think it is going to happen.[/quote]
