"Equalizing the zones" is a fool's errand. The schools will never be equal in every respect.


Why?


Serve different neighborhoods and demographics, have different facilities, have different programs, etc.


Nothing that can’t be fixed.


There is neither the money nor the political will to standardize school demographics, the condition of school facilities, and the academic and extra-curricular offerings at the ES, MS, and HS level.

You're likely the same poster advocating for the abolishment of all school boundaries in FCPS, and these observations apply there, too.

First pararaph I know, and second paragraph seems highly likely.

Unless you’re on the school board you actually can’t say for sure.
