Disintegration- Wake County School Board

The Wake County School Board was recently featured on the Colbert Report!  What is the Wake County School Board thinking??  First the Board says it is going to have students attend schools closer to where they live.  I have friends that are assigned to schools next year that are further away than the ones they were attending last year.  Plus we have moved some kids around multiple times to new schools, is this good for their development?  I will leave the answer to this question to youth development experts, but would guess the stress would not be helpful to the students each year.  The school system had a history of good performance and was even respected for the attempts to educate all students and to not exclude populations.  So we are now going to erase history and the work of so many of Wake County's school administrators, principals and teachers.  We already had a respectable superintendent quit!  What is the Wake County School Board thinking?
