[quote=Anonymous][quote]If so many people are moving into the W clusters for HS from their lower performing clusters which tend to be east county, why are the east county HS still over capacity? Or are you saying they are moving from up county? [/quote] In the eastern schools the growth is in the hispanic population. I looked up some of the old CIP and planning projections. The % of asian, AA and white population is relatively the same but the hispanic population almost doubled which none of the planning numbers projected. In 2008, MCPS was forecasting that Blair would be under capacity by a few hundred seats in 2016-2022. The FARMS number is not hugely different and while the ESOL number did jump it does not equal the hispanic population -so its not undocumented immigrants that don't speak english. Its most likely working poor hispanic families that used to live in DC and were pushed out. [/quote]
