[quote=Anonymous][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]

I'm a Montessori parent (and a NP) and I have no idea why it would be inappropriate to have a HS adjacent to an ES. I actually thought the concern with Kenmore/Carlin Springs was the traffic and the unsafe crossing of Carlin Springs Road. Since it's Arlington, though, I'm sure there's some NIMBY concern I haven't thought of yet. [/quote]

A few people spoke at the school board meeting to give reasons why Kenmore cannot possibly be considered to build a high school on its site, and one reason laid out extensively was, that it is bad to have high school students and elementary students on the same site.
