[quote=Anonymous]It’s interesting to me that anyone believes MCPS will do any more than pay lip service to the ideal of diversity when adjusting boundaries,or at the very least not in a way that forces anyone in the W schools to make any compromises. What are the chances they’ll be assigning any of those well-off children to schools like New Hampshire Estates, where more than 90% of the kids are minorities and on FRL? My bet is one or two neighborhoods around Silver Spring will be forced into some type of diversity gerrymandering and the school board will say the factor of diversity was more important when districting those schools, but when they move on to Bethesda the factors of convenience and walkability will prevail. This exact thing happened in the 90’s and I don’t think the political realities of who holds sway in this county have changed much in the intervening years. [/quote]
