[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the situation:  higher FARMS means more attention needed for academic issues, ESOL, below grade level in math, less advanced classes, so yes it does make a difference for the quality of the schools. The goal should be that both MS for b-cc cluster produce kids ready for the rigor of B-CC.  Option 1 gives the best chance of this  IMHO. [/quote]

And if BCC was its own, stand-alone district, this would make sense.  But it isn't - it's a county-wide district, and MCPS is making decisions based on all the clusters and kids in the county.  Hence the need to keep space at Westland for the inevitable influx of kids from the Westbard development that will be redistricted to go to Westland and BCC.    [/quote]

I don't think it's fair to assume that it is "inevitable" that new Westbard development gets redistricted to BCC. The BCC cluster does not have room for more students with THREE development projects in the pipeline as it is: Bethesda, Chevy Chase Lake and Lyttonsville. [/quote]

Why do you think they are leaving room at Westland. [/quote]
