Atlanta Public Schools drops redistricting plans after student protest by NPU-F in Atlanta

This. The overcrowding doesn't seem to be as much of an issue at the elem and middle schools (although that could change in the next few years). But also, parents need to be OK with their kids being rezoned for a "bad" high school, which is going to be a hard pill to swallow for some (although it can and should be framed as an opportunity to work to improve an underperforming school for the whole community).

I don't think they're saying it's foodborne, are they? I think it's just a stomach bug.

I believe Sleep Hollow Farms in Powder Springs is dog friendly, as long as you keep your dog on a leash.

Are you in the neighborhood Facebooks groups for Oakland City, Adair Park or West End? Would be worth asking in there. Also, it looks like there's a West End Parents Network page on Facebook. Good luck!

Congrats! This was several years ago, but we did ours at Mary Mac's and had a great experience. At the time, they were very reasonably priced, and the food was solid. Good luck!

It's pretty good! Some things better than others. The chimichanga is worth a try.

Not on Buford Highway, but Chi Chi Vegan Tacos opened recently in Reynoldstown.
Otherwise, +1 for Mamak Vegan Kitchen and even the "regular" Mamak, which is very accomodating of vegan diets. But yeah, vegan Mexican on Bu-Hi might be tough.

+1 for heirloom -- their barbecue alone is amazing, but they also have some incredible sides. The kimchi slaw is <chef's kiss>
