Hope they can adjust these boundaries to help increase the diversity in these schools.

Huh? Where did that come from? Parents want their kids to be sent to their closest school. Diversity is not a priority.

I remember reading the board of educated voted to prioritize this over the other criteria like proximity when making these decisions.

Yes, it's inevitable since the average school has 35% FARMS and many are at 70% while these schools with gerrymandered boundaries are at <5%. I get that when they were setup things were different but this needs to be addressed.

Yes, for all the progressive talk MCPS is very segregated - the W schools in particular.

I'm not sure where you're getting that many of the W schools are 70% white. In fact, none that I can find are. These are actual, factual percentages of how white some of these schools are:

Churchill is 46.7% white: extension://bfdogplmndidlpjfhoijckpakkdjkkil/pdf/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.montgomeryschoolsmd.org%2Fdepartments%2Fregulatoryaccountability%2Fglance%2Fcurrentyear%2Fschools%2F04602.pdf

Wootton is 41.6% white: extension://bfdogplmndidlpjfhoijckpakkdjkkil/pdf/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.montgomeryschoolsmd.org%2Fdepartments%2Fregulatoryaccountability%2Fglance%2Fcurrentyear%2Fschools%2F04234.pdf

Whitman is 67% white: extension://bfdogplmndidlpjfhoijckpakkdjkkil/pdf/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.montgomeryschoolsmd.org%2Fdepartments%2Fregulatoryaccountability%2Fglance%2Fcurrentyear%2Fschools%2F04427.pdf

BCC is 57.6% white: extension://bfdogplmndidlpjfhoijckpakkdjkkil/pdf/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.montgomeryschoolsmd.org%2Fdepartments%2Fregulatoryaccountability%2Fglance%2Fcurrentyear%2Fschools%2F04406.pdf

The W's which don't include BCC are 90% white or Asian but more importantly <5% FARMS.

None of them are "90% white or Asian", as you claimed.

Sorry 89%

Try again

Sorry 91%

I see you're not good at math

I know Whitman is very diverse! It's only 81% WH and AS.

Wootoon and Churchill are much more diverse at around 76% W & AS.
