[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Soooo... western Pike isn't moving to Wakefield and Arlington Forest is?[/quote]

That's one of 3 options.  Nothing is decided yet.  In no option does the Western Pike move to Wakefield.[/quote]

I'm pretty sure the Arlington Forest PUs were only included to make it seem like APS was trying to be fair. They can't chose all the PUs from south of 50. That might raise some eyebrows.  Arlington Forest isn't actually going to move. Please.[/quote]

I agree. It would be politically very hard for them to go with this option (B) based on the reaction I saw tonight. One of the criticisms the AF parents repeatedly said is that there was no explanation provided for why these scenarios were chosen out of the hundreds of options. But I think it's pretty obvious to everyone that they had to have at least one option including PLs north of Route 50. Just to say that they did. [/quote]

God knows we wouldn't want them to do anything hard.

The Arlington Forest option moves the fewest number of FARMS kids to Wakefield. That's the responsible choice.[/quote]

And will you be sending your kids to Wakefield?  It would be great if you'd do your part for the greater good of the County. That goes for most of you posters who are so willing to send other people's kids where they don't want them to go. [/quote]

This is such bullshit. You don't know where I send my kids. And wherever it is, I could volunteer to send them somewhere else tomorrow, and that will do virtually nothing to solve this problem. So please stop with this ridiculous rhetoric.

Some planning units are getting moved, and in those units there will be some people, maybe many people, who will have to send their kids where they don't want them to go. This will be true no matter which planning units are chosen. What about that isn't clear to you?[/quote]

No, I don't and frankly, I don't care.  You've proved my point. The point is that it's clear that many of you phonies opted to not transfer to Wakefield when the opportunity was available to you. Maybe you have delusions that the Wakefield experience is on par with W-L, but clearly many folks disagree with you, and many others are breathing a sigh of relief. Now, if you'd done us the favor and transferred to Wakefield, maybe the refinement issue wouldn't have been such a big deal. What's bullshit is that you and most of these other posters are advocating that Arlington Forest draw the short straw because, why, it's not good enough for kids who live a half mile from Wakefield. These families didn't pay a premium to attend Wakefield. Let's hope proximity reigns supreme. [/quote]

Np- hey dummy! The county has shown their hand. It gonna be about proximity, it's about demographics- so suck it sucka. [/quote]
