[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] When you're also advocating against dense zoning in your area, and against accessory apartments for "traffic" and "parking" reasons, you're preventing those of us who cannot afford your mortgages to "choose" your schools. Not exactly a free choice. [/quote]

There are plenty of excellent schools (currently) in MCPS that can be accessed for less than W prices.  These are the exact neighborhoods that the countywide rezoning is targeting.  These neighborhoods have accessory apartments, high density housing, and accessible points of entry for people with lower salaries.  Think RM, QO, NW, certain parts of Wootton High Schools.  A nurse and a policeman can afford a townhouse in any of them.[/quote]

They don't really have accessory apartments, because there are very few (legal) accessory apartments in the county. And they don't have much high-density housing either, unless you're thinking of attached houses as high density?

Also, as you may know, DCUM looks down its nose at Wootton, let alone Richard Montgomery and Quince Orchard, let alone Northwest.[/quote]

Nonetheless, these + WJ are the communities most in danger of [b]the redistricting shredder.[/b]  Look where MCPS is holding its meetings on the topic.  Hint: not in Whitman.  It is in those and similar schools.[/quote]

The WHAT?

Also, do you include Kennedy HS on your list of similar schools?[/quote]
