[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw this from Jill Ortman-Fouse's post on FB: "The language change, “*especially* strive to create diverse schools”, simply weighs demographics [b]slightly higher[/b] than the other factors of geography, stability of school assignments, and facility utilization when setting new boundaries. It doesn’t mean the other factors won’t also be considered." It seems like a lot of the opposition is based on a straw man characterization of what's actually proposed in the language.[/quote] I know Jill was saying "just a tiny bit more" in the meeting on 9/13 and "slightly more" above, but my (personal) interpretation of the word, "especially" means "definitely more", not "just a little bit." She actually wanted "especially and in particular" but O'Neill didn't like that combination of words. [/quote]
