I see a lawsuit in this district's near future. Someone is going to be upset enough. And there are plenty of errors to support one.

You can't file a lawsuit because you don't like the boundaries.

You can file it. A judge will just laugh at it and then throw it out.

unless light rail is being considered it is BS. So we can herd all the buses into Watts and Owen -- great. I am sure the parents of athelets and other participants will welcome that when they return from matches at 9 PM.... will the buses be there then ?
And as parent participants Watts and Owen will become bystanders - congratulations to the section of the north that wanted their own Neuqua for the last 10 years - you got it and the enitire middle of 204 gets totally screwed.

Tell the person at 87th and Modaff what a difference it will make when they travel to Eola and I88 --

And the time on that late departure bus that is in the middle of rush hour -- is that like an extra 2-3 minutes ?

An impossible location forced what we have here today --

As I recall, the north never "asked" for New NV. As a matter of fact, I believe they didn't even want a third high school. But everyone has their own recollections of how things occurred.

They didn't want one, because the idiots wanted to tank the referendum for MV not initially being proposed to go into a northern location.

You know this because you're in the North now?

No, because I attended all the meetings and talked to the Brookdale PTA prez.

I can appreciate MW and Owen frustrations. However, slamming the people your children will be attending HS with is not recommended.

I attended some of the boundary meetings in other areas also...as did others here to get perspective.

Yeah, I guess the realtors will now have to change their description of where we are now. 83rd street to butterfield road is the New North.

Thanks for the advisory. But please don't mind if I round-file it.

Not at all. I look forward to my children attending school with such high-minded citizens. Welcome to the North.

And, as someone else said, the bus times are ridiculous. Clearly made to fit the agenda.

Let's see the routes.

you're right - they didn't make this decision. A few were very vocal but a few is not all. I apologize. The frustration is at such a high level , but that is no excuse. sorry.

That being said, my child will not be attending MV. I refuse to travel that distance, to that site. We will opt to travel 1/2 the distance instead. It breaks my heart not to be a Warrior any longer - and my daughter has already done all her crying about it also- and is ready to move on. ( although I expect she will have more tears today ) -

Maybe you'll luck out and my kids will be smart enough to not have to attend MV.

Heads up Dr. Benet had a record number of legacy students (about 125) for the frosh class. Benet is getting tougher by the year.

Where did they get those bus route times. Brookdale to MV is less than 4 miles, yet is 27 minutes. Owen is only 8 minutes more? Guess Brookdale has the old diesel bus that goes 25mph.

yep- acccording to the map it will only take us 3 minutes more than you -- unreal isn't it ? Maybe we're getting a bullet train ?

I am betting they are consolidating bus routes to schools in order to run more in longer travel areas.
