I don’t believe they will bus kids 10 min from Wootton to Gaithersburg 25 min away. That makes no economical sense at all given the tight budget they have.[/quote]
You are correct that it makes no sense.  But they can (and probably will do it).  It just depends on the number of pro-busing BOE members at the time of the boundary study.  Making diversity the priority in the boundary policy didn't make any sense either but they did it.  And then they tried to ram through a busing scheme that was stopped in part by the pandemic but mostly because the survey results showed that 90% of MoCo values sending kids to their closest school.  This doesn't mean that the BOE can't override this sentiment and nlbus kids anyway.[/quote]

Busing is not one way, if they bus Wootton kids 25 min away, they’ll also bus other district kids 25 min or more. Overall it’s going to make 270 more congested and [b]increase cost on buses and gas[/b]. Such radical widespread redistricting will definitely result in huge pushback and exodus [/quote]

Which is exactly what was noted in the upcounty study as the reason why an option with lengthy bus rides was [i]eliminated from consideration[/i].
