[quote=Anonymous]All this discussion about the RFP coming out for the boundary study and now the sound bites out there between Biden and Harris about busing policies in the 70s and 80s, do you really think busing is a practical solution to the MCPS achievement gap? I just don't see busing as a solution that will have us all living happily ever after. And as Biden said, it would be a "bankrupt policy." I am not as concerned about boundary changes, but I know others are. As long as students don't have to have ridiculously long commutes, I don't see it as much of an issue. But I also don't see the boundary changes (without busing) making much of an impact. A perfect example are some of the coveted W boundaries, which if changed, would not really change much of the racial landscape within the schools. We live in the Churchill district, and moving boundaries will not make much of an impact...we border other W districts, so there's that. What a waste of money.[/quote]
