[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will avoid WJ cluster. You can do a simple math here.

WJ will be overcapacity by 700 students in 2022-2023 when Woodward is expected. Woodward will have capacity of 2700 kids.

That means WJ and Woodward will look totally different with new boundary no matter how you slice it. I will stick my neck out and say that WJ and Woodward should go down in test scores and property value will also take a hit. Not by a whole lot, but school is the major reason for housing having so high prices. Kensington area outside of WJ is cheaper for a reason.

There was some thread and you can look it up. Many posters started attacking OP, but it helped us to decide to avoid WJ. I don't want to be underwater after few years of buying. You never know when you have to sell.

Find a house in Kensington which is in BCC. Much safer for housing value.[/quote]

BCC is also overcapacity. In the next redistricting, there is no way that it’s boundaries will not change. I wouldn’t be too sure that the parts of Kensington zoned for BCC will still be there in a few years. [/quote]

BCC is getting addition in next few years and boundary will be decided in the next few years. Any school can change any time , but BCC doesn't need to send kids outside. [/quote]

The county's forecasts have BCC hitting capacity again within three years of the addition opening. And my understanding is that they be out of room to expand further at that point, unless they start acquiring and converting nearby office buildings. BCC may well need to send kids outside soon.[/quote]

**they _will_ be out of room[/quote]
