I'm the PP who opposes long bus rides and I'd agree with you that, if the BOE is going to make boundary changes, the kind that make the most sense deal with balancing capacity issues in adjacent clusters. Will some people complain? Of course. If the BOE assures the public that any school assignment changes will be limited to shifting kids among adjacent clusters and gives some iron-clad guarantees that kids will not be bused beyond "X" miles or "X" number of minutes, I think fewer people would be suspicious of the BOE's intentions, though for sure some would still be upset.

They have said that they are looking at adjacent clusters.

They can't give iron-clad guarantees about time and distance. It's a big county. One might almost say that it's a big [i]and diverse[/i] county. And my guess is, whatever miles/number of minutes to the assigned school you consider intolerable, there are kids in MCPS who have that as their current reality.[/quote]
