[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The consortia need to end for accurate utilization rates.  [/b]The consortia people don't feel like they are getting a good replacement for the end of their school choice.[/quote]

Huh? MCPS knows the address of every student and what school they are zoned for. They don't need to end the consortia to know that.[/quote]

Ok, to rephrase:  to accurately utilize schools, not just count the kids in schools.[/quote]

The phrase "accurately utilize" is nonsensical[/quote]

how about "utilize according to the students that are zoned for the school".

If a school is underutilized because a lot of kids are lotterying out of it (kennedy), then that space could be utilized if the kids could no longer lottery out in the same large numbers.  Ofc parents are pissed that that might be taken away.  But for purposes of assessing utilization, I can see the rational to not building more space at the school where the kids are lotterying to (Blair, maybe), and just having those kids back at their home school.[/quote]

Kennedy does not have a lot of class offerings, less than even the schools people complain don't have enough so the only option is to move, cosa or lottery to get your child's academic needs met.  Wouldn't you be pissed if your kids didn't have the same opportunities as other students in MCPS while paying your property taxes that go toward classes for other kids and not yours?[/quote]
