[quote=Anonymous]There are 2 reasons why the Whitman cluster remains untouched. There is no other reasonably distanced option for most kids that live in boundary. Surveys showed that families hate having their kids on a bus for a long time. This is particularly detrimental to families with two working parents with limited transportation resources. It prevents kids from staying after school, participating in sports and other activities, or maintaining friendships. There was no way to tweak the boundaries without substantially adding long commutes. Survey results consistently showed that families, regardless of wealth, prioritized the need for neighborhood schools. [/quote]
