We let our voices be heard. We didn't miss any "great opportunity." We took ADVANTAGE of a great opportunity. Most of us who voted for Republican board members were in favor of neighborhood schools, as they are. It isn't about segregation. Get that through your head! It's about not having to bus our kids all the way across town, costing the county even more money on buses and gas. Neighborhood schools seem to have been working. It isn't about race, it's about quality education for the students. It doesn't matter what school you should or shouldn't be going to. It's about quality for every student, whether they're black or white, it doesn't matter. I don't see anything wrong with neighborhood schools and I support them.
