[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow.  That's too bad.  As a Chevy Chase resident, I think Norwood would be a great site.  It is centrally located, allowing for creative drawing of the boundaries between the new middle school and Westland so that the new school could be more racially and socioeconomically balanaced, and could even take overflow students from Pyle (which the Super has indicated is possible).  It either has or has the potential to have multiple transportation points, and it is right on the Crescent Trail, so it would really encourage walking and biking.

Lynbrook would also be a GREAT site, in the sense that one could create a lot of synergy between the middle and high school.  Advanced students could more easily take classes at BCC.  In terms of field use, Lynbrook and BCC could use NCC fields, rather than constructing the new school at NCC.

Funny how when East Bethesda wanted to get out of the RHPS partner pairing, they complained about how much time their kids spent on the bus and how they had lost their neighborhood elementary, but now that that same spot could be a middle school, they don't want it. [/quote]

Listen, as an East Bethesda resident who did not like my kid sitting on bus for more than 1/2 an hour to RHPS, I support the middle school. There was not enough discussion in the community about it. AND by the way, most of us will really miss RHPS. We loved the K-2 atmosphere.  [/quote]
