[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That is a bunch of garbage. [b]People buy houses in specific areas because of the schools.[/b] Yes, MCPS is one school system and the curriculum is the same. However, the peer environment is absolutely not the same throughout the county. My DS says one of his best friends at another high school is scared because of the way some kids at his school behave. Unfortunately, my niece at a different high school says the same thing. I don't care what color skin my child's peers are or how much money their parents have. It's all about the learning environment in their school. Real estate prices have been tied to schools for many years and it happens all over the country, not just in Montgomery County. If MCPS decides to impose busing kids all over the county to increase "diversity" than Montgomery County can kiss their wealthier tax base goodbye because they won't have their kids be a part of that. [/quote] OK. But sometimes the school system changes the school boundaries. That is well known. Also, nobody is talking about "busing kids all over the county" except a small number of posters on DCUM, and what their goal is, I really don't know.[/quote]
