[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP. I have two kids in a MCPS public school with a FARMS rate just under 20% and an ever-FARMS rate just over 20%.[/quote] So what are you arguing about? You just don't want anyone to go to the public schools with lower farms rates? If what you want is more varied housing so the economic mix is more equitable throughout the county, go advocate for that. But don't dump on the parents who send kids to publics in higher SES areas. [/quote] I am arguing that the public schools attended by people who live in Bethesda and Potomac exclude a significant part of the public. But, as I said, I think that MCPS is better off if the Bethesda/Potomac parents send their children to MCPS than if they send their children to private schools. And actually, I do advocate for less residential economic segregation in Montgomery County.[/quote]
