Is it realistic for families currently zoned to Churchill, WJ, Whitman, etc to be concerned about redistricting? Does anyone have concrete info? (yes I know the study/hearings are upcoming, but someone must have some intel)

WJ: yes b/c of overcrowding
Whitman and Churchill: doubtful b/c of steady enrollment

Whitman is very white. So I won’t be surprised if they start bussing Whitman kids to SS/TP schools. Wootton/Churchill/WJ are much less white

Whitman kids are already bused to silver spring/TP schools to make them look better. What do you think the magnet is for.

All 3 of them don’t make a difference.

The whole point of a magnet was to desegregate. Many of you don't know your history.

That was the intent 30 years ago. The problem with that thinking is it's currently outdated. A lot has changed over the decades since these programs began. For example, today the vast majority of magnet students reside in the DCC.
