Incorporating R10 could provide justification to reassign Rosemont ES-Forest Oak MS to feed into Crown HS down the road (to help alleviate the pressure from Gaithersburg HS)?

Rosemont is definitely going to crown as crown is currently in the rosemont boundary. That’s not new

But so close to GHS.

Right, they could move the Rosemont island to Crown, but the other parts east of 270 are within the GHS walk zone.

I feel they will move the entire school to balance farm rate

They're not going to make kids who currently walk to GHS instead ride a bus to Crown.

I don’t think most crown will be split articulation at ES level. They also have split articulation of fallsmead and Ritchie park. That will not set the new high school well. Kids will hate going there that they are forced to separated from their friends.

There is no split articulation at RPES. They do have split articulation at Cold Spring ES.

Falls grove may go to crown and the rest goes to Richard Montgomery. Cold spring is not split articulation at all, everyone goes to the same middle school and high school except the magnet program

I was addressing -- "They also have split articulation of fallsmead and Ritchie park. " -- there is no split articulation *right now*.

And yea, I meant CSES split articulations starts in MS where that ES is the only one in the cluster that goes to CJMS. The rest of the ES in the cluster goes to Frost. Then they all end up in Wootton. Same thing will probably happen with some ES and Crown HS.

I’m talking about the new crown high school. Sounds like multiple ES will have split articulation in order to keep walkers in the original high schools. It just doesn’t make much sense for crown as a whole

The point is that if the ES boundaries will not be redrawn and all the gerrymandering is fixed before Crown HS comes online, it will be a mess.

Gaithersburg #8 ES R10 boundary is an example of that.

MCPS really has it out for the parents. I feel sorry for the kids growing up there.

Yeah I feel sorry for my kids but will try to move away if we get rezoned

I'm not sure what your point is about zone R10. That area of Crown has been zoned to Rosemont for many years and no changes were made to it in the #8 boundary study.

You feel sorry for the kids growing up at Crown, who are currently zoned for Rosemont ES and will continue to be zoned for Rosemont ES? Why, exactly?

I'm guessing you haven't seen the Gaithersburg #8 boundary study results? Take a careful look at how the boundaries were drawn at the ES level. Since most parents never scrutinize which ES they're assigned to, they don't know when they've been royally screwed.

The question once Crown opens is whether MCPS will split off R10 kids from their ES / MS classmates as walkers, or (more likely) will they continue on to Gaithersburg HS (in which case that sucks for them since they live next to Crown and Rio and would normally be walkers), or (even more likely) is this the lame excuse that MCPS will use to bring equity by giving the Forest Oak MS kids bus rides to the brand new Crown HS across 270?

In case you weren't aware, FOMS is 90% non-white with over half Hispanic and about a quarter Black, 78.7% FARMS, and 20% ESOL. However, FOMS is best known for only 18% having minimum proficiency in math, 28% minimally proficient in english, a 5.5% MIDDLE SCHOOL drop out rate. It's the perfect way for MCPS to lower MS-13 issues from Gaithersburg HS, while pumping them into the Rio Washingtonian area.

If that happens, I'm sure the community in and around Rio will appreciate the gang members hanging out after classes in their community. Combine that with reassigning kids from Travillah or other Wootton feeders and voila! It's instant Equity and parents won't be able to do anything about it! It will be like the Jim Cary towing truck scene from Liar Liar...

What about Stone Mill? They also go to Cabin John, and then Wootton.

You are correct. The current Wootton cluster boundary map is a cluster f*

I don't get it. So many of these assignments are random and favor busing over neighborhood schools. For example, look at Cold Spring ES, it's much closer to Frost than Cabin John. This makes no sense.

Not true. Cold Spring to Frost is 2.8 miles, Cold Spring to Cabin John is 2.6 miles

Because they used have this lovely long bus ride every day and with rezoning, it will be so much shorter.

Actually both are about equidistant and a negligible difference when considering what was done to Gaithersburg #8.
