[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Diversity is increasing in that area anyways. B-CC is up to 17% FARMS now and is projected to surpass 20% FARMS in 2 years. [/quote]

I'd expect even more change once they have to shift BCC's boundary for Woodward.[/quote]

Rock on, obsessed DCUM poster who keeps insisting this is going to happen even though there is no plan to do that.[/quote]
I find it funny how triggered this suggestion makes people. Regardless whether or not there is a plan now, it is inevitable and will probably be part of Phase 2 for Woodward.

In any event, back to the topic, the report included a number of inconvenient facts about specific communities that both had the largest disparities and also have long been given exceptional treatment. These are the obvious neighborhoods of Garrett Park, Kensington and Takoma Park. The result is that after the report was released, the BOE announced that they will not be taking up any of the recommendations and decided to make it disappear.

The report will not be used for any future boundary studies, because those studies will be done according to MCPS policy. The objective of the report was to look at boundaries across the whole county with an eye towards potential district-wide boundary changes that would address two goals: (i) alleviate overcrowding across neighboring boundaries and (ii) address racial disparities across adjoining boundaries.[/quote]

If you persistently posted "2 + 2 = 5" and "water is dry", that would "trigger" me too.[/quote]
