[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SES level in WJ and Woodward, both will fall due to adding 2000 students from DCC. Nothing against DCC because I live here, but it's a simple fact. Test scores will also fall, but life will go on. If you are afraid of these outcomes then pick a different HS cluster.[/quote]

The phrase “W” schools will lose its meaning when WJ and Woodward fill up with lower performers from the DCC. [/quote]

Wow the racists are out today[/quote]

Are you sure you aren’t the racist one equating lower performers with race?[/quote]

Not the PP, but which part of above post sounded racist to you? I was considering WJ as well and I looked at test scores of DCC schools nearby. Test scores are going to be down a lot for sure. It's a simple logic of looking at current scores and averaging them. Not sure where race comes in picture here.[/quote]

Why would WJ test scores drop? WJ’s new boundaries would likely pull from their current boundary, Whitman, and BCC. [/quote]

They wouldn't. It's the usual fearmongering. [/quote]

The point was that current WJ designated areas might be rezoned to within the Woodward boundary.  Areas that stay within WJ would still be fine.  Woodward is still going to be a good school though maybe in line with a school like Richard Montgomery.  I wouldnt sweat it too much as its so hard to predict future boundaries and values are rising in the SE section of MoCo.  That also being said it seems like MoCo has a much bigger issue that Fairfax in terms of the polarity between rich/poor and high/low performing schools.  [/quote]
