superintendents recommendations #2, 3 ( #1 is the same as boe alt 3)

If I am understanding this correctly, they took the ridiculous option off the table of RP with a FARMS rate of 40% and HH going to twinbrook?


You are not understanding this correctly. That option is on the table; it is BOE Alt 3.

FFS.. I can't believe this monstrosity is still on the table. WTF.

Being able to walk to school is important, certainly, but why should it be the most important?


To have one white and elite elementary within a diverse RM cluster.



All parts of RP2 is not even a good walk to RM#5. I live in RP6.


Actually, some parts of RP2 are walkable to the new school.


The entire RP2 is walkable says the study and the board today at the meeting

No one would say. The blonde said TB needs to know we will always have additional resources for them even if they fall below the paramferers. That is a straight up lie.

+1 I'd like to get that in writing, and then sue them when they can't deliver.

Well the area includes the courthouse and a lot of lawyers. I would expect lawsuits.

+1. No one really bothered to explain what % of FARMS TB needs to stay title1. It seems like TB does not care, we have all these ridiculous bus route options that affect them but we don't get any feedback from their community. The only thing we heard from them is that they want to stay title 1.

It seems like the bussing everywhere option is what the board is going for. 40% FARMS for RP.

It sounds like they are going for some protege of mixing kids all over the place in every cluster. Someone said, it really isn't that far? F yeah it is. It takes me 25min to get to Twinbrook Elementary.

I love how we had 8 options for what, at least 6 months and each civic association, PTA, and study group had months to get feedback, advice, do studies, etc... Then all they kept saying is "we haven't heard from Twinbrook" Well that was YOUR job to do that.

Then they scrap all of those 8 ideas because the info was wrong, create only 3 options and within 2 days the super makes 2 more options and that is it. You have a few days to get your act together. WTF???


Have you been paying attention? The BOE is doing exactly what the hungerford civic association wanted. Hungerford was worried about twinbrook students in their school so lined up 20 speakers from their neighborhood to discuss plans of redistribution of their neighbors. Watch the November 8th meeting, the boe even spoke sharply to those parents about how we need to educate all students and how hungerford's talk about students not belonging are not helpful.

So what if the Hungerford civic association lined up 100 people. That doesn't mean you get rid of 8 viable options that STILL were not presented correctly and come up with 3 new ones in one week and then let the clueless super come up with 2 more and the only BOE he supports has kids bussed all over.

And 46% FARMS and loss of title 1.

Hope Hungerford is happy now. Pieces of shit civic association ruined really decent options. Is there anyone appreciative of their collaborative witch hunt? The irony is they will now get bussed to RP (instead of walked to a brand new school) and with the Twinbrook families they didn't want being bussed to RP now with a higher FARMS that they were fighting for. If RP loses both RP5 and RP4, it will be an awful school. No new school and the same terrible administration. Serves Hungerford right.

White and elite? The 7% FARM option still left RP more than 50% minority. Damn shame people equate wealth with being white.
