[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wondering about when Woodward HS opens 2026, and MCPS redraws boundaries for Woodward, WJ and I am assuming Einstein, are they also going to redraw the boundaries for North Bethesda MS, Tilden MS and Silver Creek MS?

For example, DS will be in MS in 2026 - what is the likelyhood he will stay with his cohort through 8th grade or will they all be split up?[/quote]

Yes, the Woodward HS boundary study will include the DCC (or at least that's the current plan).

And yes, you should assume that there will also be changes in which middle schools go to which high schools. [/quote]

DP. Though Silver Creek may not be part of it, since they're neither WJ nor DCC clusters. The middle schools I would expect to be part of the boundary study would be North Bethesda, Tilden and the DCC middle schools they're adjacent to: Newport Mill, Loiederman, and Parkland.[/quote]

The MS consortium are no where close to Woodward.  I would suspect Silver Creek would get moved to Woodward given the proximity to WJ/location.  [/quote]

Woodward to Silver Creek: 4.4 miles
Woodward to Loiederman: 4.5 miles

[/quote]

Loiederman is heavily Hispanic and low income.  They wouldn't fit into the W crowd.  Move Silver Creek.[/quote]

Exactly--that's how you get diverse schools, by combining people from different backgrounds.[/quote]

Except those kids don't want to be bused in nor to the kids there want them there.  They want diversity in terms of race, not income.  They don't want poor FARMS kids.  Read the threads over the Einstein attacks here.  [/quote]
Like it or not kids from Loiederman and/or Newport Mill are going to end up at Woodward with kids from WJ, the horror!  :roll: [/quote]

Not if the families currently at those schools have anything to say about it.  No one wants their kids bused that far. [/quote]
