And I'm willing to increase what I pay in taxes to help fix it. I do not believe that [b]solely moving kids around to balance out diversity numbers[/b] is going to do anything because all it's doing is shifting SOME kids to the "better" schools while leaving or moving kids around in the shitty schools. MCPS needs to be fixing shitty schools. That's the bottom line and all of these talks regarding boundaries are just another way of absolving them of this responsibility.  [/quote]

Fortunately, nobody is proposing to do that. NOBODY.

To change a boundary, there needs to be a boundary study. And there are 4 factors in every MCPS boundary study:

1. facility utilization
2. geography
3. demographics
4. stability of school assignments over time

So you can stop worrying about this.[/quote]

You missed the biggest point. The point is no one should be moving kids to shitty schools. [/quote]

It's odd how the "no one should be moving kids to shitty schools" people were never concerned about the kids currently at the shitty schools until there was the prospect of moving [i]their[/i] kids to them.[/quote]

This is the DUMBEST argument I have ever heard of. Seriously. Do you think families have time to watch BOE meetings online to learn about the shitty schools that their kids do not attend? Sorry but not all of us are privileged to have that time. And why are you blaming families who are concerned about the shitty schools?  For YEARS students and staff at the shitty schools have been complaining about their schools, their resources, their facilities to guess who.... Guess who ignored them? Guess who decided to put up astroturf on football fields instead of fixing falling ceiling tiles and rats at Southlake. LEt me give you a hint- it's not the people you complain about.[/quote]
