[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's interested that for the boundary study they heard parents say they want to go to schools close to them (except Town of Kensington which loves bussing) and they said welp I guess we just stop paying attention to demographics or utilization. But with the program analysis they have zero intention of listening to any feedback whatsoever.[/quote] The boundary study is being done by consultants who are probably normal people who think "This is a big change, we should gather and take seriously feedback from the community." The program analysis is being done by MCPS, who... well, you know.[/quote] To add upon, the consultant company has GIS expertise and staff with past experience with boundary change for large school districts. Although I'm not impressed with their first round options at all as those contain numerous number miscalculations (not sure about this round, I haven't got time to check), they seem to be serious at collecting and analyzing feedbacks. For the regional model analysis, there is only one person essentially working on it: Niki Porter. She assembled a team of community steak-holders that she absolutely doesn't give a sh*t to, and biased her interpretation of statistics of data (hiding, mis-interpretation, using wrong proxy data, etc.) just for the sole purpose to push an agenda that our superintendent loves. This is called dictatorship. [/quote]
