congratulations, Einstein parents. You got what you wanted and simultaneously destroyed Northwood’s future. You now have 3 criteria based programs including your precious performing arts while Northwood has 1 program. You even got Northwood’s STEM program.

You should be ashamed of yourselves and MCPS is such a cowardly disgrace.

If you think Northwood won’t rise up now, you have it wrong. You woke up this community.[/quote]

This is very unnecessarily hostile. Einstein parents should not be ashamed for advocating for their school.

But it is true that this proposed configuration leaves Northwood with scraps compared to the other four Region 1 schools, with dance being the only criteria-based program. That seems especially non-sensical to me considering NW will have a brand-new building that, I believe under all 4 boundary scenarios, will have spare capacity.

But one potential solution to this would be to move the Humanities criteria program from Whitman to Northwood. A lot of Region 1 parents, including Einstein parents, have expressed support for that in other threads.

I will not tone police myself. You knew your “fix” for Einstein was to directly steal from Northwood. If your child was so performing arts gifted, they could apply to Northwood. But you have unfounded prejudice against Northwood because of the original bad planning of the DCC. It’s history repeating itself. [/quote]

DP - zoned for Einstein - this take is bizarrely paranoid.  It’s delusional.

Also, Whitman is not our enemy.  I say this as someone whose kids would attend only over my dead body, so I have zero interest in them going there, but they are not the enemy.  Taylor and the BOE are the ones we need to focus on, not other parents.[/quote]
