[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As we eagerly await the proposed boundaries for the three schools, I am interested in what you all 'hope' to see, boundary-wise.

What do you hope the new boundaries will look like? What about the student bodies at all 3 schools?[/quote]

What I hope isn't the same as what will happen of course. But in my opinion, Clarksburg kids should go to Clarksburg High. Germantown kids should go to Seneca Valley and Northwest. Those 2 schools serve Germantown.   When Clarksburg was built, years ago, they decided to take some of the neighborhoods previously zoned for SVHS  to Clarksburg to address overcrowding. Now that SVHS is renovating and can handle more students, it only makes sense that Germantown kids are zoned back to SVHS. SVHS from what MCPS is telling us is going to be  a really nice school when it's done so based on that, we should assume that it would serve the community well. [/quote]

But how are you defining "Clarksburg kid" vs. "Germantown kid"? MCPS has already said that the building blocks for the new boundaries will be the current elementary school zones, and those don't correspond to the boundaries of Clarksburg and Germantown.[/quote]

Clarksburg kid is a kid who lives in Clarksburg. Germantown kid is a kid who lives in Germantown. [/quote]

Well, yeah. But at least 2 ESs, Gibbs and Clarksburg, currently serve both Germantown and Clarksburg addresses, and no one's ES is changing....[/quote]

Fine, then elementary schools that have a Germantown address should go to a MS, and a HS that are in Germantown. Elementary schools with a Clarksburg address should go to Middle Schools and the high school that have a Clarksburg address.[/quote]
