[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Once the new HS is built my guess is Fallsgrove (pulled out of Ritchie Park) Fields Elementary, some of Fallsmead (near Rio) and parts of King Farm will be going there.  [/quote]
I'm also in RM, and am awaiting with interest what happens in this regard.  However, I tend to doubt that what you predict will happen simply because there is no new MS planned to my knowledge.  If they were to redistrict just at the high school level, the new cluster would be a mess with kids coming from a whole slew of disconnected middle schools.  Given the foregoing, it would seem to make more sense to me if any development of the new high school is deferred a decade or so to see what happens (especially given there are no construction funds set aside for it, and every PTSA is complaining as we speak about the 1-2 year delays on pending modernizations), or that they would just make it some special voluntary HS program drawing from all the neighboring clusters (QO, GB, RM, Wootton, WC, Rockville) to relieve any HS level overcrowding.

If there was a new MS in the works in the same area, then I could see a new cluster being set up from the areas you note, but I'm not aware of that being the case.

Given how MCPS likes to keep some level of continuity between the MS and HS boundaries, my guess is that the current cluster boundaries will just be retained for the most part, at least for the foreseeable future.[/quote]
