[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about a lottery only system for high school? Students can apply to a special focus program or one of 4 comprehensive high schools. High school students can travel independently -- most do already. Turn Wilson into a middle/elementary school to deal with WOTP crowding. [/quote] Wilson is the only general high school WOTP, and it is the largest and most crowded. That is the one you'd close?????[/quote] Yes. It has been filled with students from across the city for years, so clearly commuting isn’t an issue for 14-18 yo’s. WOTP needs capacity for younger kids who should be in schools closer to home. The Wilson HS building would provide it. There are too many high schools with capacity. We need to get more students to them — and close a few or lease to charters. The neighborhood school system for HSs simply isn't working when you consider the whole city. [/quote]
