Interesting! That Boston Public Schools switched from this mechanism to Gale-Shapley seems like it might be useful in convincing our school board (which is separate from the BPS school board, since schools are municipality-level here) to switch.
In case it would also help to have two-to-three Harvard and/or MIT professors who work on exactly this topic to write supporting letters or talk with your school board, I’ll bet money at $1:$1 that I could arrange that. Or I’ll give emails and a warm intro for free.
