[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]True, the liberals on the MCPS might push to institute bussing in order to mix bottom performers with top performers so doesn’t matter where you live. Your kid could have an hour commute in rush hour.[/quote]

Doubt that's going to happen.  There would be a huge uproar.   Right now, my kid walks to school in 6 minutes.[/quote]

MoCo just randomly selected our household to be part of a countywide survey.   Filled it out today.  It asked whether we thought county should adjust school boundaries for "diversity" and use of available school space.  Under Erlich they are pushing this approach.[/quote]

Lots of things are "explored."   But if you think there is suddenly going to become a system of busing kids 1 hour across the county, you don't understand how county elections work.[/quote]

Maybe I don't understand county elections, but I am more familiar with how the federal laws like ESSA end up pushing counties into "compliance."[/quote]

Ok, please cite your evidence of how MoCo is out of compliance with ESSA and how it's going to be mandated to redistrict.  [/quote]

Just look at other public districts and what they are moving towards.  It doesn't really matter who is on your local school board.  I didn't say it would be "mandated" to redistrict.  But continued inadequate progress closing the achievement gap leaves fewer options each year.  [/quote]

So basically you're chicken little and the sky is falling. [/quote]
