I am the mother of a current second-grader at Rosa Parks, and next year I will have a kindergartner. The district needs to implement a solution to significantly reduce enrollment across ALL grades at Rosa Parks by next year. If I didn’t already have a child at the school, I would definitely be asking for a variance to Wilder for my kindergartner, however that is not a great solution for people that have siblings in the school already. I am a frequent volunteer at the school, and if my kids were split between schools, I wouldn’t be able to offer as much to the schools.
