[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]East Silver Spring was untouched in the previous options but these options have 1 that sends the kids to SSIMS, but still to Blair; and another that keeps them at TPMS but then sends them to Northwood.  Both split articulations when we weren’t previously.  So, these options are wackier for our neighborhood.[/quote]

Yes. To drive past one high school to get to the one we’d be zoned for under option b is ridiculous. [/quote]

You do realize this is what pretty much everyone zoned to Sligo Creek has to do? Many live much closer to Blair than to Northwood. [/quote]

Yeah, of course it seems weird when you look at your individual address and aren't zoned for the closest HS, but it makes sense in the context of the whole county and how the HS's and population are distribution. Then Northwood is getting a new building with larger capacity, and Blair is over-capacity, so of course some students are going to move from Blair to Northwood, and also from Einstein to Northwood.[/quote]

Re ESS it bothers me less that one option has for Northwood than it does that one does that and a different option changes the middle to SSIMS (which does mostly articulate to Northwood).  The current Northwood option keeps these kids at TPMS.[/quote]
