[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Ward 3 parents on here aren't doing themselves any favors.  I was sympathetic to their concerns because they have the most to lose.  But it doesn't take hipster glasses to see that very few posters from Ward 3 see themselves as part of a collective system and they clearly dislike other parents and kids outside their ward, either because of their choices or circumstances.  Studies show allotting 20% of seats to low-income kids helps those kids, but doesn't hurt the other 80%.  That's not a tipping point, so why not help those needy kids?

As this public debate continues, don't expect the other 7 wards to care about your concerns when you show such disregard for theirs.[/quote]

Does your child have to move from Murch to Eaton, or from Key or Stoddert to Hyde? If you were in that position (your child has to attend a school with lower test scores to make room for 20% oob students), how would you feel? You'd be fine with it for the 'greater good?'[/quote]
