You said you didn't want your "10" to become a "4." I did think you were talking about Cuthbertson/Parkwood originally but you clarified which surely made it sound like Weddington was "your 10."

I think it would make you feel better if you converted some of the time you've spent complaining on city-data in trying to put together a realistic plan to oppose the redistricting, which consists of more than just "I don't want my kid to go to a lower ranked school," "they're moving kids just to raise test scores," "build new schools ASAP," etc. etc.

Don't you worry about me Phils, i got my bases covered….I just find it funny why you are so concerned what i am doing….whether i have a master plan or just babbling on city-data, why is it so important to you? With that screen name, i would be more concerned with that strikeout lug you have at first base and the tin man you have at 2nd (always did like Utley, but he can't stay healthy)

hmmmmmmmmm….call me crazy, but i think i will go with choice B….but thats just me

We know who she is, Phils. Not too terribly difficult to figure out ;-)

Seriously, though - I hope everyone keeps their cool Tuesday. If it gets out of hand, you may give them a reason to cancel the "cluster meetings" or other working sessions. Which would basically leave 1 more meeting until they vote. Be respectful, please.

Funny thing is a couple of months ago the McKibbon report is held at Walter bicket development center roughly a couple of hundred people. Next up Monroe development center probably over 1000 then onto Monroe HS and now Marvin Ridge HS. I hear the final vote might be held at the Bojangels Arena lol. Just a little humor but goes to show that in the beginning I don't think many people took it serious. Now.... Seems like everyone of us woke up to see the reality of this. Maybe next time there won't be a next time. Meaning let's plan ahead before it's to late. Just my opinion.
