[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They really need to put some kind of choice program at Williamsburg -- under capacity AND dropping their already low 10% economically disadvantaged population [b]down to 5%[/b]!  [/quote]

At first.  If you look out a few years, it's projected to drop to 1%.  Better get some affordable housing along Lee Hwy soon or those kids will be so busy doing drugs they won't ever have a chance to meet a poor person.  [/quote]

Lol that's unreal. And, I think that's the appropriate apples-to-apples comparison, right? The Oct. 25 presentation appears to use only projected economic disadvantage (ED) in the years 2022-23. Previously, W'burg was at 4. Now it will be at 1. A more cynical person might think they're trying to hide this fact. [/quote]

Can one of you tell me where it shows Williamsburg dropping to 1%?  Seriously, what is wrong with the SB?  Why can't Williamsburg MS pick up more planning units in Swanson to at least alleviate overcrowding at Swanson?![/quote]

For Williamsburg to pick up a higher percentage of ED population they would need to bus from planning units that are farther away. That's the whole reason the Williamsburg Island existed in the first place. Do you think those planning units actually WANT to go to Williamsburg? Probably not. [/quote]
