The Board finally backed down and abandoned their reckless redistricting plan for Waverly. We forced them to keep our community intact because they realized we were not going to let them destroy our school. Stay alert because we will be watching them like hawks if they ever try to pull …

Dear Members of the Board of Education,

The parents at Waverly ES understand that our school is currently at a utilization rate of 82%. We also understand that new students will be assigned to Waverly in Fall 2013 as a result of the redistricting plan that is pending approval by the Board of Education.

We believe that the proposed redistricting for Waverly Elementary School must make sense.

1. We favor a decision that keeps our existing Waverly community intact. 2. We welcome new students to bring Waverly to target utilization to help alleviate overcrowding in neighboring elementary schools. 3. We favor a decision that utilizes both Waverly and St. John's Lane elementary schools to help balance out capacity at Veterans.

The Board of Education thinks they can ignore our community while they scramble to fix their own mess at Veterans. We are almost at 250 signatures and we need to hit that mark right now to show them we refuse to be carved up. Send this link to anyone who cares about keeping our school together.

Keep our community together. My kids have worked so hard to build their friendships here.

We need a common sense plan that actually considers the families affected and not just the raw numbers on paper.

Fix the overcrowding at Veterans without breaking what works at Waverly. It isn't rocket science.

Waverly has always been a tight knit family. Trying to split us up is just going to create more problems for everyone involved.

DO NOT split our neighborhood. We chose this house specifically for the school.

Ridiculous to mess with our boundaries again. Leave the schools alone and stop moving kids around like chess pieces.
