[quote=Anonymous]I also think it is strange to use Wisconsin as a dividing line across the board. At the margins, fine. But if you use it as a strict dividing line, then you close out people one block away from Janney. I don't have a dog in using Wisconsin as a boundary, since we would still be zoned the same. But in principle if you are a very short walk from a school, you should have the option of going there -- especially in a part of the city where people buy for walkability. For example, we are actually slightly closer to Janney than to Murch, but we are zoned for Murch. The are both good schools, and even though Murch is a little farther it is really not much farther: maybe an extra block or two. Of course, Janney is closer to the Metro and would make our lives easier, but this is fine. But if we were two blocks from Janney, and 12 from Murch, I would be very unhappy -- especially if it were a change from the time we bought our house.[/quote]
