Today was a very interesting day.
There was a policy committee meeting today. These are open to the public, if you are ever so desperate for company that you want to join us. The district boundary policy was in the set to review. I mentioned a couple of discrepancies that I had noticed and was informed that the boundaries may change soon so it’s probably no biggie. Yeah, it's because of all day kindergarten. The district needs to make room for the kids and the only possible way in the whole wide world to do it is to redraw the district lines.
And suddenly the splitting up of children at the middle school level concerns people. It seems that Price and Lincoln students divide and some attend Roberts and some attend Bolich. Gee someone should have thought of the bad boundaries and division of schools 4 years ago. It would have saved us a lot of trouble.
I’ll bet you a pack of crackers that the new boundaries involve moving CF students into Silver Lake Elementary. And I’ll put up some cheese for those crackers that it will cost us. I know one thing. There is no way they would do this because the significant cost of the building is embarrassing and it doesn't currently have the enrollment to support itself.

That's not such a bad idea though...
That reconfiguration is going to look better and better to more folks. Think about it: nobody wants to talk about it now but wait until their child has to be uprooted. Reconfiguration will start to look pretty good then.
This kind of inconsistency is exactly why Patrick is going to private school next year. And if they eliminate AP and gifted programming, Hayley will go elsewhere for high school too.
Gotta love a board and administration that's so focused on one goal that they're actually driving students away. That seems like a smart way to run things, doesn't it?
