[quote=Anonymous]It was just a couple of years ago that MCPS chose proximity over diversity when dividing up the BCC zone after building a new MS. The argument was that it was an unfair burden on (relatively) lower-income students AND their families to have to travel a longer distance and that burden outweighed the potential benefits of distributing racial/ethnic/SES diversity more evenly. It was a heated debate but I think in the end it was the right outcome and most families and kids seem happy. I have trouble imagining that the county is going to embrace the massive costs and disruption of open enrollment everywhere with attendant transportation issues. The county is just physically too large and too expensive.[/quote]
