[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really hope when they do this, that they really focus more on proximity and less about FARMS.  This area has the worst traffic in the nation and yet [b]we are also the only area that has boundaries that look like a spotted leopard and bus kids to schools past schools they can walk to.

If you check another other county's boundaries, it is nothing like ours.  MCPS already has busses going all over for their costly (and wasteful) special programs.  Let's keep costs down and think about the environment/community for the schools.  [/quote]

No, we aren't.[/quote]
Indeed... HoCo rezones every other year to keep the schools balanced.[/quote]

You can't even compare to Howard County.  More than half of their high schools have less than 10% FARMS and all have less than 5% ESOL in every high school.  Why? They aren't a sanctuary county.  Even still, they DO NOT rezone to balance. Most of their schools are either far less than 10% FARMS or mid 30-40% FARMS.  No in-between. Doesn't seem very balanced to me.  And their worst high schools are better than average in MCPS. Why do you think so many middle and upper middle income are leaving MC for HC?
