In this thread, Wayside parents should be happy that there is no nuclear option like option 3 in Woodward where you get shipped to Gaithersburg HS to balance FARMS.

Wayside going from Churchill to Wootton should be a non-event for most families. Not sure why so much noise. Wootton is equally good school.

The neighborhoods moving from Wootton to Crown seems like the the biggest losers in the Crown options.

Yes, it’s a big loss for many people, not just on property value but also having to leave friends and attend a brand new half done school without auditorium. Many uncertainties especially for the 9th graders who have to leave on whether the new school offer the same rigorous courses, club/sports activities, etc

Hundreds of kids have had to move schools due to boundary changes. Your kids will be alright. Sheesh.

Where? You lack basic empathy for affected kids.

Where? Have you been living under a rock? MCPS has had a few boundaries redrawn in the past 10 years.

My kids moved schools, including across the country. They are fine. Yes, it will be hard at first, but they will adjust. It's not like they are moving all alone. Your entire neighborhood will move. Sheesh. I hope you teach your kids more resilience.

MCPS has very limited redistricting but even those changes have left lasting impacts. In Clarksburg, families rezoned out of their expected schools are still deeply upset. Even the residents from the Ritchie Park, who were reassigned to RM decades ago, still express long-standing resentment now. Many continue to speak about the emotional toll and lasting mental harm they experienced from these redistricting decisions. These concerns should not be taken lightly.

Instead of being taught to be flexible and adaptation, children now get sheltered and coddled by parents who were also sheltered and coddled. And parents who have turned into people who get angry about a brand new beautiful school to move into in one of our state's best school systems (with its share of problems, too). The whole situation is messed up. They opened a new ES near me. "oh good, ours will be less crowded when the new one opens" It was less crowded, particularly since my family was sent to the new school! My kids did fine.

Lots of educators and administrators disagree with this. Of course they will be fine but it really disrupts the community and climate we are trying to create when whole large groups of kids are moved around. There is community within the walls and within morning and afternoon bells too.

On top of that, kids are a bit more attached to their school community now more than ever. Maybe because of covid or screens? Or possibly better relationships with teachers as teachers use more positive enforcement now.

Another kids are resilient crap. This is the reason MCPS keeps failing because they just don’t care about the kids well-being.

We got sent from Rocky Hill MS (back then an outstanding school) and Clarksburg HS (good enough) to Neelsville (the old building called “the prison on the hill”) which no one wanted their kid in and Seneca Valley HS (the new building at least which is beautiful but is definitely not as good a school as Clarksburg - at least back then). And the first year fights were happening in the halls of SV on the daily. It was ridiculous. Your time has come. We have survived, our kids are doing well, yours will too. Are some people really complaining about moving from fabulous Churchill to fabulous Wooten? Please 🙄

It's puzzling.

Question for you. Which is the harder transition? I hate all of these split articulations but was thinking that if they absolutely need to do them, they might be better at the ES level than the MS level. Thoughts?

Agree with that. Younger you are , it's easier to make friends.

How about the same kids split twice?

Yeah option 2 and 4 have many of these split twice thing. Split articulations should be minimized to the lowest extent possible.

MCPS has very limited redistricting but even those changes have left lasting impacts. In Clarksburg, families rezoned out of their expected schools are still deeply upset. Even the residents from the Ritchie Park, who were reassigned to RM decades ago, still express long-standing resentment now. Many continue to speak about the emotional toll and lasting mental harm they experienced from these redistricting decisions. These concerns should not be taken lightly.

well, they need to get over it. And it wasn't about the kids; it was about their home values. Of course, moving schools is not easy, but the kids will get over it if you let them. Your attitude impacts them more than anything else. Teach your kids to be resilient.

-HH resident with old time neighbors who still do talk about it. BTW, some of those kids who are now adults live in the RM cluster, and send their kids there.

You know why Gen Alpha kids are soft, because millennial parents coddle them way too much.

HH resident here also. The only ones here who wish for us to be redistricted to Wootton are the ones without kids in school and who want to sell.

Agree, not all kids are the same. Just because it works for your kid doesn't mean it will work for others. At the very least, we have to fight for our kids, no matter what the result will be.

I still think the Woodward thread is nastier but you are giving them a run for their money.

This 100%. MCPS BOE members must have used the word resilient 100 times during the covid closures. I can just hear the word now coming from behind Monika's mask.

Please, I'm a parent in the RM cluster. My one DC has some anxiety and depression issues and is a very sensitive kid, but I don't try to coddle them. I try to teach them to be, yes, resilient. Because that is what it takes in this world to live.

You are not doing your kids any favors by trying to coddle them.

You can advocate for your kids, but thinking that having them and the entire neighborhood move to a different cluster is going to be traumatic is just pathetic. IMO, you are probably more coddled than your kids are.
