[quote=Anonymous]"No one is blaming Whitman or Churchill. I used them as an example of schools that when parents snap their fingers the BOE acts. Example; When Churchill was scheduled for renovation the parents flat out refused to have their children moved to the holding school (Northwood) for fear of having them rubbing shoulders with the common folk in Wheaton. So the renovation went on with the students in the building while the holding school sat empty. Northwood was good enough for Sherwood whose students had to travel about 20 miles to attend school for two years but not good enough for the elite Churchill people." You're apparently in need of a GPS. Sure Churchill itself sits about 10 miles from Northwood, but it's at least 15, if not 20, miles from most of Potomac to Northwood HS, and much of that is on the Capital Beltway. That's what every parent wants, their child on a bus inching along the Beltway for an hour in the morning rush. It's only 11 miles form Olney to Northwood, and that's on GA Ave., no Beltway needed. So before you make snarky assumptions about the motivations of the Churchill parents, I suggest you do a little bit of research. Otherwise you look like a fool.[/quote]
