[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't disagree or doubt your statement. I simply think that in order to do this type of boundary shift it will be rolled into a larger, more wide-spread "social justice" based boundary shift. This way, theoretically, parents won't be able to effectively fight their individual changes.[/quote] I have been involved in two boundary shifts. Both were before Starr. In both, MCPS considered demographics. In both, the affluent parents pushed against having poor kids go to their kids' schools. Of course they didn't say, "We don't want poor kids at our kids' school." They said things like, "It would be better for the kids from [over there] to go to a school that's closer to home and would help to strengthen their community." When MCPS considers demographics, you apparently think of this as "social justice". I think of it as social justice. [/quote]
