School Move?

The Framingham School Committee is reviewing a plan for organizing the elementary schools.

Parents are paying attention and discussing the plan online on Facebook and on an email listserve, frambors as well as attending the open public forums.

I hope that the school committee and the media get input from the communities such as Southborough, that have implemented a similar plan.

Somehow having children changing schools every three years doesn't seem like a way to go. 

One side issue is that it may result in a reduction in parental and student loyalty.  It's hard enough to engage parents in the PTO and school activities and the less time they have to become attached to a school, the less involved they may be.
