[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of these schools lack real diversity and need some busing.[/quote]

Busing is a band-aid. I'd rather see MCPS invest in well thought-out programs at specific schools that are attractive and open to students in upcounty/midcounty. [/quote]

You notice how the two HS magnet programs are in opposite corners of the county that's inconvenient for the majority of the county?  There was another thread a few months back about Crown.  The capacity at Crown wasn't even necessary if current boundaries were shifted?

I want to know how many overpaid MCPS Central Office / BOE staff at Hungerford send their kids to College Gardens ES or live in Kings Farm?  Someone on the thread was pushing hard to insist that those areas would 100% certain be part of Crown.[/quote]

That’s funny because the word on the street is that the rest of King Farm will be shifted from RM to Gaithersburg, not exactly a “win”.[/quote]

Word on what street?  Why wouldn’t all of KF go to Crown?[/quote]

If they're not doing split articulations, then all of College Gardens and all of Washington Grove would have to go to Crown. Not saying that won't happen, but then you also have the Crown-adjacent islands from Rosemont and Fallsmead to contend with. And obviously Fallsmead contains Wootton itself, so there they probably would need to split articulate.[/quote]
