[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live further east but are moving out of the area. I don't have faith, and can't gamble with my kids education.[/quote] If you're further east, you'll probably be pulled into whatever it is that they build at the Career Center. I'd be fine with that if they could show that they have a plan for equitable facilities and a way to execute it before my kids are already there. Im going to sit tight and hope for the best and save some $$ for private school just in case. BTW, has anyone from the Montessori community weighed in on this talk of moving their program? Seems like if it's so inappropriate for a HS to be located adjacent to an ES at Kenmore, it will be an issue at the Career Center, too. [/quote] Not far enough east. Looking at the map, my neighborhood would likely be cut in half. Half going to a "less than" HS at the career center with better demographics, and half going to GS 2 Wakefield. It will be interesting to see the home prices on either side of the line. I'll be following with interest - from elsewhere. We aren't in a financial position to risk our largest asset/ investment. This has the potential to lower property values in areas like Claremont and Douglas Park. It's a shame. I was very optimistic about Wakefield in the long term. [/quote]
