[quote=Anonymous]All existing boundaries should be ignored. Lines should be drawn around neighborhoods and if a neighborhood can walk to a school, then they should go to that school, no discussion or possibility to change on those assignments. This will reduce the amount MCPS has to spend on busses and bus drivers. It will reduce traffic which the county desperately needs. It will allow more students to participate in after school activities without burdening parents to have to pick them up. Everyone on this forum seems to be in favor of students walking to school, except maybe Horizon Hill since they like going to RM, but that neighborhood really should go to Wootton for the reasons listed above.

For students that are not in a walk zone, they should try to keep them at the closest school, but when multiple schools are similarly close, they may not go to the closest one in order to balance enrollment and keep all schools under capacity.

That should be the process. Ignore historical boundaries, ignore demographics, this doesn't need to be nearly as complicated as MCPS is making it out to be.[/quote]
