Don't know if I can speak for EagleDad, but we'll go where we are assigned. If it's at WV, NV, or MV (where ever it ends up being). I don't think it makes much sense to go past WV to a northern MV, but if that's how it is, then that's how it is.

then I tip my hat to you - you're a better person than me as I find either scenario crazy. And no, I do not think it makes mush sense to pass another school on the way ( yet some had us at MACOM in their assessments which took us past NV ) - but then doubling the HS commutes of a fair number of ES's in the central part of the district makes little sense either when there are 10 other ES's physically closer.

ok so there the thing....

I can get nuts over this whole hs thing and make myself crazy when we don't know what's going on yet or I can wait and see what happens. I don't think the SB will be asking for input from us re: boundaries or location. So I tell myself, if I have issues with what has been decided, I can voice my opinion. If that doesn't work and the people I have trusted to do a job end up not doing the kind of job I would expect, I can try to change things by voting them out of office or voting for someone else.

For me, this is all I can do. And I am willing to accept that because I have not taken more of a role in this, that I have to live with the outcome. For me, it's fine.

Doc, I don't Watts would end up MV Macom.

nor do I , but it actually showed up in a few scenarios - most trying to say we didnt need to change the boundaries if we moved from BB to MACOM.

We would end up at either NV or WV - just depends which way the boundaries would be split -- either would work

maybe that's the ket - maybe I have been too involved, but again I respect your stance, I just am not as accepting about it as you are...my problem, not yours

It's cool. You do what you have do.

I have adopted a new saying, "Everything seems better after a beer or two." Maybe in this board's case boxed wine (that would be a glass or two not a box or two ;D).

Shouldn't EagleDad be adding a political cartoon about farm land in Iowa and men/women with pitchforks and talking about a "short" 3 hours commute.

I know, don't encourage him.

Okay, Gombert accepts the short 3 hour commute to Iowa as long as we don't pass WV to get there. ;D

Imagine the school we could build there for $124M

Okay, I am having a hard time finding boxed wine lately. Those of you hoarding it, need to share the wealth.

They don't sell whiskey and vodka in boxes, do they?

You will need to go to Germany for this, I think, but here is you Vodka in a box
