Parents choose schools on numbers and emotion | recordonline.com

Parents choose schools on numbers and emotion | recordonline.com

As a follow up to my post last week on municipal consolidation, here is an editorial that appeared in this morning's Times Herald Record.  Note the fifth paragraph which reads "Some of the anguish is purely emotional, the understandable loyalty people have to a district that might not be their own but that has become part of the experience of so many students and families. Those are the emotions that often halt talks of mergers between two struggling districts even though the economics and demographics all show that combining schools is the only way to survive."
