And option 3 is only a moderate improvement, the kind of thing I would have expected as a middle-ground option between "no improvement on demographics/diversity" and "significant improvement on demographics/diversity."

I feel like all the options other than #3 are non-starters. #3 has plenty of flaws but it feels like we need to focus on iterating off of it to make it better. It's ridiculous to have some schools with 6% FARMS rates and some schools with over 60% FARMS rates (or up to 75% at some middle schools!) and have 3 of the 4 options not do a thing to try to address that.

Option 3 will destroy neighborhoods plain and simple. Only a complete idiot should suggest that option 3 should even exist.

Just think of neighborhoods more broadly. I support option 3. It is the best option for all children.

Why is that? What do you think will improve for all children?

Same money. Same resources. Same teachers. Same. Equality. The dream of MLK. It's great

Life is a lottery. People on the west just want more chips at the rigged casino. It's coming to an end with option 3 baby

You think you are being funny but lots of kids choose Wheaton in the DCC choice process because of the engineering lrogram

I'm being serious. He can be a successful engineer. So lucky if we get Wheaton. WJ is not good

MCPS and MOCO is on a trashy path. In the last two summers:
- Get rid of MVA "because we dont have budgets"
- Increase diversity bullshit "because we now have budget"
- Pay shitload to former corrupt superintendent
- Increase property taxes "because we need more budget"
- Rezone school district "because we don't have budget"

Did i get all of what happened in last 18 months?

WHY? Mid-County is getting Woodward which is right there. You don't need another school in that area. You need one in DSS or Takoma or lower Siliver Spring, even White Oak.

Same thing with Wheaton Mall. There are several schools near it. That's NOT where the need is.

The new superintendent also got a huge pay raise and the BOE is asking for a pay raise for themselves too (and how do they get all that time off work and is their job paying them days they are doing BOE matters?) They also kept many in Central Office who were the problem and need to be terminated.
