Where are all you families of high performing students planning on moving to?

We're moving from Potomac to Silver Spring closer to the magnets.

Ha ha -the dream of the SS ganglandia families. Replace all the rentals filled with five families with rich Potomac families.

Seriously no person in the history of the county has ever moved from Potomac or Bethesda to Silver Spring unless they encountered a serious financial crisis like divorce or bankruptcy.

I know many of these in person. It’d be hilarious, except that I’m one of the ‘poors’ and see first-hand how the ridiculous SJW policies affect middle class communities on a daily basis. While the liberal hypocrites send their kids to private school and stay away from the ‘poor’ neighborhoods.

I don't understand. Where do you have daily interactions with these liberal hypocrites who send their kids to private schools and post on the DCUM MD Public Schools forum (for some reason) in favor of the MCPS boundary analysis?

I mean, I do know some liberals who send their kids to private schools, for [reasons], but most of them know very little about MCPS and decline to express an opinion about MCPS boundary policies (or calendar policies, or whatever) for that very reason.

Ooh ooh, pick me! Not np, I live in westgafe/westhaven and these people are alll over my neighborhood. It’s great to see there no hate yard signs while their children are sheltered in the comfort of their private schools.

I wish that MoCo would do a migratory study and look at the trends of where people are moving. According to my realtor friends, they see the following patterns.

1. High income, one spouse works in VA - moving to VA.
2. Mid -high income, kids in upper ES moving from Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, Germantown into Wootton, Churchill, QO, BCC.
3. Kids out of college Potomac - waiting for prices to reach 2007, buying condos in Florida claiming Florida residency
4. Mid income, kids, moving from Clarksburg to Howard.
5. Mid income, kids, moving from Silver Spring to Howard or Potomac/Rockville, NP.
6. Want more house for less money, have kids -choosing MoCo but choosing the highest ranked school for their budget
7. Retired Potomac- moving to condo in Bethesda.

MoCo has been growing. Are there people moving out? Yes. Just as there are people moving in. Hence, the explosion of development and over crowded schools.

DP.. why is that hypocritical? A person can't support "no hate" and send their kids to private school? My kids go to a non W school, and I am not a liberal.

Families with young kids move into area with lower performing high schools. They then leave when the oldest gets into upper elementary school. For all the oooh there are so many young families moving into my area -it must be improving posts for areas with low GS schools, the posters don't realize that those families will be gone in several years. Sorry.

Have you see the trend of MCPS studnet pophlatin growth? Less white students, no growth in Blck students, slight growth in Asian students, but Hispanic students now are the largest group. Yes, there are population growth but they are living in group family homes in wheaton, silver spring, Rockville, and monrgomery village. Less people pay taxes.

This exactly. I have seen this in our neighborhood for sure.

We are at a FOCUS ES and several families have moved away or are going private for MS. One is using an ‘alternate’ address to attend a MS in a better cluster.
