What's even more laughable is that we are close enough to walk to West Cary Middle and one of my children is being bussed across town to the other side of Cary. This reassignment is ridiculous!
The rapid growth in this area is to blame. Why aren't developers held accountable? Before the Cary town council approves more development they should have to make sure there are seats available to accomodate new students. Another problem is the number of new houses being built. The number of kids increases dramatically with high density housing, and do they have to pay property taxes to help pay for schools? No, they don't!!
This reassignment is breaking up neighborhoods and families.

It's like any and every level of government. People get these government jobs and forget who they are supposed to be working for. They have their own agenda and seem to completely lose all of their senses. This country is back to where we were over 200 years ago. We have taxation without representation. At least I know that I have no representation in government. Only big business and special interest groups are represented in our current form of government.
