[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, since the net flow of students will be from overcrowded Clarksburg and Northwest, the real question is which areas will be funneled into Seneca Valley, currently a much weaker school.  As a parent in one of the areas added last minute into the study, I of course worry that it is our area that will get axed into SV.

Education-wise I am indifferent because either the kid will get into Poolesville or we'll move to another area before kid hits HS.  It is also possible that SV will get enriching science and IB programs, making it an acceptable choice for strong students.   Financially, it will be better for resale if our home stays with the initial assignment.  Clearly everyone has the same problem, and someone is going to lose big $$$, especially in the short term while SV tries to change its reputation.[/quote]

MCPS does not, and should not, use property values (or, more accurately, people's perceived effects on their property values) as a factory in boundary decisions.[/quote]

No one said that a-hole. They said someone will lose money and they will. Who the heck wants to go to SV or Gaithersburg?

We lost a lot when we got redistricted. Homes are 100K cheaper now and it sucks. I don’t wish that on anyone.

I think what annoys me most is instead of building true mixed development, they are moving neighborhoods too far about to even the SES and race. No one should drive by 2-3 schools to get to theirs. [/quote]
