[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What, [b]you don't think that 10% home value reduction in NW- and CL-assigned homes that will get re-assigned to SV is true[/b]? Someone is going to get hit. Of course I hope it's not our neighborhood.[/quote] Correct.[/quote] Justify your opinion, please. I would like to think that moving to SV would not impact my property value. Then I can sell and move to a preferred school district when the times comes. Right now, my fear is that I will be stuck in SV because I won't be able to afford to sell at a 10% loss. Thanks.[/quote] You're proposing to sell your house and move because you want to avoid a high school you know nothing about (and nobody else does, either).[/quote] I know all I need to know about it. SV has abysmal minimal-standard state exam passage rate, the basic testing that goes into the GS rating. The school has minimal AP offerings. 5% of the students or less who take AP exams get a 5 on the exam. That means that 1-2 kids PER CLASS get a 5 on the AP exam. That means that if, somehow, my child ends up in that school, I will need to hire a tutor for every AP class because the class instruction means nothing. It is going to host a county-wide vocational education program, which is amazing for kids that need it, but that define the school. NW is getting a biomed education center, early college, Ulysses program, and has a full plate of AP exam offerings. You can take your diversity shpiel and give it to the Washington Post, the NYT, or to the latest bastion of fake diversity in education leading to fake improved results. [/quote]
