[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are million-message-long-threads on MCPS redistricting in the MCPS forum. MCPS is undertaking planning processes to redraw school boundaries everywhere. I'm guessing it wouldn't affect your elementary school (and even if it does, [b]the close-by ones are all very good)[/b]. But it could shift Bells Mill to go to, say WJ or Wootton instead of Churchill for high school. (All good schools, though, so maybe that won't be a problem for you.) In sum, if you are buying a house for the school district, go check out the MCPS forum on DCUM.[/quote] Keeping in mind that "good schools" means "schools attended by a low percentage of kids from low-income families." It doesn't mean that the curriculum is better, or the teachers, or the administration, or the facilities. It just means that the standardized test scores are higher because most of the kids come from affluent families.[/quote] My kids are at BMES and the teachers are fantastic.[/quote]
