Please feel free to post this letter to your blog, but
please keep my name out of it.
thanks

I sincerely hope that DISD board members actually look
at this web blog and truly consider the concerns of
the residents of the Montecito/Forestridge area.


My concerns have already been addressed in an
articulate manner by Randy Wuenche and others and do
not feel that rehashing them ad nauseum is productive.

I am VERY FRUSTRATED in the manner in which this
entire situation was handled! The decision that the
board is making affects the core of so many people.
Breaking this news just weeks before a vote without
anything but hurried community input is absusrd!

If the data presented on this blog is anywhere close
to being accurate, the point of socioeconomic equality
of high school campuses is bogus. The size of this
neighborhood is not nearly enough to make much of a
statistical difference in the high school population.
And this is the only valid point that the board can
make?! And somehow this statistically insignificant
number outweighs numerous other valid concerns? Am I
the only one that thinks that this is crazy?

I am passionate about my children going to
neighborhood PUBLIC schools. I settled in this
neighborhood knowing that because of the growth in the
south Denton it would only be a matter of time before
a new high school on this side of town would be built.
'Lo and behold shortly thereafter a sign appeared at
the Guyer site and I was thrilled to know my kids
would be going to school just down the road. . . .. .
until last week.


Sincerely
