[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I reading the chart correctly that WJ’s capacity is dropping from its current 130% to a projected 77%? Do WJ families that feel happy with the downsizing in student body (and diversity) realize how this will drastically reduce WJ course offerings?

There is an elementary school boundary study in the works, right? I would not be surprised to see changes made to middle school assignments when that study happens. There are smaller boundary shifts that happen all the time. For better or worse, this here recommendation is not set in stone. [/quote]

Yes. I’m very pleased. And any high achieving kid can go to JFK or Wheaton program if they want.

Yep. Whitman 2.0. It will shoot up through the rankings, property values will sky rocket and so on. Great for the county.

Meanwhile the Woodward staff and families will have to set up a PTA and Booster, work with new admin, develop a new program.  It’s a lot to be honest.
Great recommendation from Taylor.[/quote]

Of course WJ parents are pleased. They hit the jackpot. They will worry about course offerings when it comes to that, and easily get what they want since it will be one of the most desirable schools, with wealthy families and where teachers will want to teach. And no high achieving WJ kids will go to Wheaton or JFK. They will stick with their home school and most likely get better STEM and humanities classes anyway.[/quote][/quote]
