Looking at a school zoning maps, particularly around the Eastport / Remsenberg / Speonk area, its like one neighbor will be zoned for one district, next door they'd b a different district.
Wouldn't it make so much more sense to just do it by streets as borders? What is the history behind all these squiggley lines?? How did it come to be so complicated?
If your on the south side of a street your one district, and the north side of the street your in another, although the one your not allowed to go to is soooo much closer. Why?
The districts and neigborhoods grew organically over time, LI history goes back a reasonable distance (at least in US terms). They didn't drop out of the sky in gemotrical patterns yesterday like some 2010-planned subdivision in Arizona. That's why.
There's some weirdness and commingling of HS as I recall.
