[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, sorry. I support many of the suggestions (separate out program changes from boundary study, slow it down), but no, I don’t think they should toss out all of the October boundary options, which were a great improvement over the first ones for many many people. I don’t read this as the DCC wanting to keep their current arrangement, but I do read it as them wanting to be prioritized over other schools. Which totally makes sense for them, but not for my kids. They are free to advocate but I’m certainly not going to sign a petition against the interests of my community. [/quote]

The likely reason for anyone to be comfortable with these current options (or to see them as a great improvement) is that you actually have NO changes! The current maps have virtually ZERO changes for BCC and Whitman. Kensington obviously cried to MCPS about having to go to Einstein and got put back in West county. If you like these maps more than the last, it is probably because your FARMS, ELL, White, and Asian rates stay the same, and you are getting new programs. DCC is asking for MCPS to spread Woodward boundary changes across the county, and not focus all of the instability, disruption, program loss, and split articulation in one under resourced place.
