I am a Wootton/Cabin John/Cold Spring parent and the misinformation that is being spread about this study from my neighbors/friends is absolutely insane!!!!  These are smart, kind, educated people who just cannot seem to grasp the fact that yes every once in awhile (in this case it has been over 20 years) change must happen.  Guess what it is not just your kid that may go through this change.  The entire community that you love so much will be going with you.  Please calm down.  The ugliness at that meeting was just completely uncalled for.  What are you so afraid of?  "Worst" case scenario you will end up at a school that currently borders yours with people from your neighborhood going with you.  I just don't get what is so terrible about that???? [/quote]

Property values at neighboring school area may be a lot lower. That’s not really fair to make families lose so much money.[/quote]
Too bad. That's not MCPS's concern.  Schools are overcrowded. Boundaries should've been redrawn years ago.

Of course, as a homeowner, I care about  my property value, but I can't expect MCPS to never redraw boundaries when the schools are overcrowded just because *I* might lose out on my property value. That's not MCPS' concern, and I wouldn't expect t he to worry about that. They worry about educating all 160K kids, not my property value.[/quote]

Glad I am in the Churchill cluster.  We will continue to be unscathed.[/quote]

Yes, the threat to property values in the Churchill cluster is not from school boundary changes, it's from the fact that ever fewer people want the kind of housing in the kind of location that Potomac has to offer.[/quote]
