[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP in case you don’t know Northwood High School soon have a new building, too[/quote]

And when Northwood's new building opens (planned for fall 2025) [b]it is likely some areas currently zoned to Blair will be rezoned to Northwood to relieve some of Blair's overcrowding[/b].[/quote]
Yeah but not including Takoma Park.[/quote]

ESS is two blocks from the Blair/Northwood boundary line. It could very easily be rezoned.[/quote]

ESS is also about 5 blocks from TPMS. Every elementary in the DTSS area *except ESS* has weird skinny boundaries, apparently in order to mix DTSS kids with kids closer to the Beltway (whiter and wealthier). So they're all within a few blocks of the boundary for some other school.

ESS is the only school with more natural boundaries. Except for the sliver across Georgia Ave, almost all the kids live within a 1/3 mile neighborhood walk, if not next door, and the same average distance to TPMS. I'm mixing a couple of issues together here, but this is a big reason we chose ESS.[/quote]
