[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The property mentioned at the recent BOE meeting was the former Broome Junior High School on Twinbrook Parkway. Unfortunately, that's not near Northwood either--it's 6.5 miles away from the school itself, and over 9 miles from the southern end of Northwood's service area. There really aren't any convenient options.[/quote] Plus, wouldn't the former Broome Junior High School have to get renovated first? http://www.peerlessrockville.org/historic-rockville/peerless-places-2/edwin-w-broome-jr-high-school/ Not to mention that there are ~1,800 students at Northwood, and enrollment at Broome, when it closed, was projected to be below 600. How would everyone fit?[/quote] Yes. Any of the sites--Woodward, Broome, or a commercial site--would need significant renovations first. MCPS typically adds a bunch of portables to holding schools. I believe Broome has 40-some classrooms already, so their capacity is much more than 600.[/quote]
