[quote]Who cares about the answers to these questions. One poster made a demonstrably false statement, claiming that DME Smith "all but said" that Hardy would not feed Wilson. In fact, she said exactly the opposite.

Who cares if the person who pointed out the [b]falsehood[/b] is IB or OB?

If the person is IB, are you more or less likely to believe the original lie that DME Smith said Hardy won't feed Wilson? [/quote]

Calling something a falsehood doesn't make it so.  Read proposal B from DME Smith.  It states in black and white that if Wilson is overcapacity, then DME/DCPS will consider option of sending Hardy students to an unspecified new high school rather than Wilson.  It's pretty easy to see how Wilson gets to overcapacity, if it isn't already:  existing feeder schools at capacity and a baby boom ongoing in places like AU Park, then add the OOB mandatory set asides, maintain OOB feeder rights, etc.

[b]If Smith said she didn't mean any of that statement in her proposal and disavows it, then I stand corrected.  But it doesn't seem that she has.[/b]

I was at the Hardy PTO meeting. I spoke with her personally. The option to consider an unspecified new high school had to be put in there because of the current over crowding at Wilson. ALL options and plans are on the table. But that doesn't mean all have equal feasibility. There is no new high school being built. Ellington is in process of being renovated as a speciality high school. So this option B isn't feasible. 
Hardy will continue to feed to Wilson. Period.[/quote]
