I am pleased Dr. Sam Adamo has recommended no changes to the Harper Park Middle School boundaries, nor other Leesburg middle school boundaries, for 2009-10. I was concerned about proposals submitted by parents which would have moved students from Southeast Leesburg (CL 34) to Simpson Middle School. There is no need to move kids who have been attending "The Park" to another middle school to solve an overcrowding problem, which appears to be at Ashburn and Lansdowne middle schools. We enjoy Harper Park, Principal Shipp and his staff. We also want our kids to go to Heritage - where we have "Pride" in "The Pride," if you get my drift. You already have a good feeder system with Harper Park students going to Heritage. Please don't break that up. The staff report is reasonable and I hope you will vote for it in April. Thank you
