Well that's STUPID.
The school board is actually endangering Lukash's Daughter safety.
If she lives across the street from the school. If she can walk 100 feet from her front door to the school then sending he elsewhere is ridiculous and endangering the child as she now must walk many blocks.
OR I guess it's just one more car on the road..
I say if you can throw a rock or ball at the school you should be able to go to that school.
Or schools boundary should have a one block radius..

It's not stupid. It's practical. But if you don't take the time to study the background for a decision, then any fool can call a well-thought out decision stupid.

Which ones of our school board supposedly went to Ivy league schools? Other than Caswell who went to Dartmouth, the frat Ivy, none of the rest of them did. Not there's anything wrong with that, to quote Seinfeld. It's just a fact.
