[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Still think it's not happening after the MCCPTA CIP Chair testified for it last year before the Board of Education?  Read the story in the new Bethesda Magazine (not available on line or I'd post a link). They are definitely headed in that direction.

Why? Because they (County Council, Board of Education and Superintemdent Smith) believe it will solve the opportunity gap.[/quote]

If it doesn't happen sooner, it will happen out of necessity when Woodward comes online.[/quote]

Here's my prediction for what happens when Woodward opens: there will be a boundary study for Woodward.

Go ahead, call me crazy.[/quote]

The consensus was Woodward will draw most of its students from WJ and Einstein out of necessity because of its location and extreme overcrowding at those schools. It also seems likely that B-CC that shares a boundary with Woodward will also be affected since the excess capacity could be shifted to other nearby schools with an adjacent boundary to address overcrowding while minimizing bussing. This has been discussed ad nauseam in other threads. [/quote]

The CIP says that the Woodward rezoning will affect Walter Johnson and the DCC. The CIP further says that the capacity issues at B-CC will be addressed by the B-CC addition. What therefore seems likely is that the Woodward rezoning will affect Walter Johnson and the DCC and will not affect B-CC. Even though you believe that the Woodward rezoning ought to affect B-CC.[/quote]
