[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of these schools lack real diversity and need some busing.[/quote]

McKnight and the Board just lost Title I money for four schools.  That means less resources.

And you want to install a skin color meter on the front door of the schools?

Forget it.[/quote]
That almost happened with Twinbrook ES when they were looking at redrawing the boundaries when Rustin opened.

One of the options was going to make TBES and RPES 40% FARMs each, which would cause TBES to lose Title 1 status, and the two buses literally bypassing each other on the way to their respective schools.  Thankfully, it was shot down, but I hear that there were a couple of BOE members who wanted this option for the optics; it certainly wasn't for the kids or their families.[/quote]

No, it did not "almost" happen.[/quote]
2 wanted it, so it could've almost happened.  Why did MCPS even put that option forward if they didn't think it was feasible?  Or are you saying that MCPS does stuff like this just to mess with people's heads?[/quote]

"It could've almost happened." :roll: [/quote]
yes, it could've.  Otherwise, they would not have put that option forward.  Or again, are you saying that they just do that to mess with people's heads?[/quote]

I could've almost been a contender.[/quote]
