[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many DH and MM kids would remain walkers even if they get moved.[/quote]

At its nearest point to Swanson, DH is .3mi. At its nearest point to Kenmore it is 1.0mi. At its furthest point to Swanson it is .8mi. It’s furthest point to Kenmore is 2.3mi. Definitely will turn lots of walkers into bus riders. I haven’t done the math on the distances that would be involved for the kids currently in Jefferson or Kenmore walk zones who would become bus riders. Driving all these kids through each others’ neighborhoods is plain silly. [/quote]

There are no new PU's from the Kenmore or Jefferson walk zones who are going to be bused to Swanson. There are some PU's that are probably closer to Jefferson than they are to Swanson but THAT IS NOT NEW. Buckingham has been zoned to Swanson for a very long time.

I get it, you want all the fr/l ELL students out of Swanson and back "where they belong," because you paid good money for your segregation and all.

And you don't need to "do the math." Staff put out the numbers, and none of the scenarios they want feedback on increase the number of bus riders. Try to keep up. [/quote]

FFS, stop throwing the race card. Families want their kids to walk to the school in their neighborhood. This is not complicated, nor is it some secret racist code. [/quote]

Then stop bringing up scenarios that aren't actually on the table, and stop talking about PU's that already belong to Swanson as if they don't. Are those families asking to be moved?

And of course this is about race; whether you want to see it or not is another question. [/quote] Here's a scenario. 1D. I hope to see it happen.[/quote]
