It's meaningless because a significant amount of variation is built into the cluster system.  [b]We have decided, with limited exceptions, that it is good for kids who go to elementary school together to all go to middle school together, and then go to high school together.  [/b]Therefore, a premium is *not* put on sending every kid to their closest school, it's with keeping groups together.

But that's not the case--*we* have not decided that. The MCPS board/staff several decades ago decided that. This gives us an opportunity to reconsider that decision in the current environment, with current data.[/quote]

We was used as the colloquial - "we" as in society.  I realize that DCUM posters were not polled (thank goodness).

But, this is not just MD - this framework is used in the vast majority of schools in the country.

Also, you think we should reconsider?  That school attendance should be purely a function of proximity, with no attention paid to overcrowding, feeder patterns, transportation difficulties, costs, etc?

Fantastic.  Good luck with that.  [/quote]
