[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're an idiot. Nobody wants a high school bottleneck in the western part of the city. It's simple, really: many people can clearly foresee a looming overcrowding issue at Wilson. You have several choices: 1. Remove some feeder schools 2. Build greater capacity at Wilson 3. Create a new school. If choosing 1., which feeder schools? Proponents of 3. realize that it may not be reasonable to remove east of the park feeder schools. So, tell me again why I want?!? a bottleneck in my neighborhood. Or, stop denying the reality of the situation and tell me what you'd do. [/quote] Are you the same person who said I was hiding hidden vitriol??? Here's a fourth choice, and the one I would choose: 4. Make one or more of the under-utilized high schools that currently exist EOTP into desirable schools. Each of Cardozo, Dunbar and Roosevelt has or is undergoing a renovation. Each of them is in a much better position to ease overcrowding at Wilson.[/quote] No, I'm not. I'm the person who mentioned the $10m in renovation planning at Ellington and the other options for a HS in the "area." Again, please tell me who you would (presumably force to) go to the HS. That's the million dollar question, not the facility. In what time-period do you envision being able to lure said children to this newly revamped school? What are your plans if you fail to meet that deadline, the school remains relatively barren, and overcrowding persists? *Forcing students to attend would eliminate this concern, but it would force you to answer who you would remove from the Wilson boundary. I'm not trying to be confrontational; please answer how you'd alleviate overcrowding at Wilson and through which means. [/quote]
