[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There were 4 "if you left BASIS" threads, and a whole bunch of "join my facebook listserv," "I can't believe 25 6th grader spots are gone and no one told us until it was too late" "chemistry candy gate" and "I am a Luddite" emails. She wrote a bunch of them, but unlikely all of them, but I say everyone drop it. The various points have been beaten to death, and this has gotten silly and ridiculous and it is time to move on.[/quote]

[b]I[/b] have an issue with the 25 spots and intend to try to bring it up at the next coffee hour.  I want to know why it happened, and how HOS intends to prevent it from happening in this year's lottery.  Bottom line is this is about money, people.  We do not get money for empty spots.  We can hardly ask to expand if we cannot fill our school.  I also agree that we all have neighborhood list serves we could have posted the openings on had we been told earlier. So:

Are you all going to boo me down or throw popcorn at me?  I agree that it is time to move on here, but I think you people ought to be ashamed of how far this went and in what direction.  It is not like she is a deranged dangerous person who has done permanent damage to the school.  Unless you are gullible enough to blame her for shutting down the list serve when they "had been thinking about it for some time" - read ante FB Luddite Candygate which were all in the same friggin [b]3[/b] emails.
