And why does it matter?  Yes, ideally the school would be more diverse it this was a great way to do it.  Now its too crowded and does not make sense.  Are they busing kids into schools in potomac?  Doubt it.[/quote]

So enrollment at Dufief this year is about the same as last year.

If MCPS is not busing apartment kids to schools in Potomac (they may or may not be; I don't know), then that is because Potomac has been extremely successful at keeping out people who are not affluent. I wouldn't be proud of that.[/quote]

That is such a crock of shit.  They aren't successful at it.  There are apartments complexes in Cabin John area, Tobytown etc...  There is no rich gang trying to remove them in Potomac. Closest kids to the school go to the school.  Some schools have better SES's than others.  MCPS trying to manipulate the test scores by bussing kids past multiples schools to go to another and overloading some schools is a waste of tax dollars.  Kids should go to the school closest to them.  Neighborhood schools.  If the PP wants it to be so politically correct, then they should ask for busses to come get their kids and send them to Wheaton or Twinbrook.  You talk the talk, but would never walk the walk.
