[quote=Anonymous]This is what was posted on the Save our Schools IG account. How is this misinformation? It is factually correct to say that Options A-D assume that SSIMS stays open and Options E-G assume the closure of SSIMS.

"MCPS is soliciting feedback by this Friday, January 9 on the Woodward/Northwood High School Boundary Study. 3 of the 7 options in the boundary study would remove SSIMS.

If you want to keep SSIMS open, let MCPS know!

Submit your feedback at the link in our bio before 1/9/26 – Share your preference for Option A, B, C or D, and add your feedback in the form so MCPS hears from the community."

I think this thread was started by the same poster in this thread (https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1305334.page) who posted multiple times saying that the Save our Schools group should be advocating to keep SSIMS boundaries the same. This person is adamant that if SSIMS stays open, its boundaries should stay the same as they are now.

This statement by the OP continues to misunderstand the purpose of the Save our Schools group -- " options A-D split up current SSIMS kids, and an amended version of E-G is the only way to keep current SSIMS kids together." It has been pointed out multiple times to this person that the Save our Schools group is not advocating to keep current SSIMS kids at SSIMS (that is impossible given the scale of the Woodward boundary study) but they keep harping on this one point.

The Save our Schools group is not spreading misinformation. They are saying four of the options keep SSIMS open, three of them close SSIMS. The boundaries of the school will change if SSIMS stays open -- that is a given.
