[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is pretty much no one going to RHPS now for whom it would be a burden to go to the new MS. For most people it would be closer, for some it might be halfway and for a few it might be slightly closer to Westland, but I don't see how going to the new school would be a burden. [/quote]

Totally disagree.  I live in Chevy Chase and the new MS site is really far away from my house and in a direction I would never drive otherwise.  [/quote]

Exactly, we really need to unlink NCC and CC ideally which is why there are options like #3.[/quote]

I actually think 5 is the best.  [/quote]

If you think that MCPS is going to put all of the poor kids in the cluster in the same middle school, you haven't been paying attention.[/quote]

I don't have any delusions that they will choose 5.  Just stating what I think seems the most logical.[/quote]

I'm another 5 supporter.  It's efficient.  Yes, you end up with different demographics at the two schools, but that's just a natural by-product of geography.  There are different demos in Maine and Florida, but the US doesn't try to merge them together (only a half serious comment to illustrate the point).

Demographics in the US are never just a product of geography. They are the product of decades of racial covenants, redlining of mortgage loans and similar forms of discrimination. [/quote]
