[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is painful to read the (pretend) outrage toward Woodward families because they are requesting for WJ and Woodward - and every high school ideally! - to have similar utilization rates.

There is something very, very wrong when utilization rates differ so widely among schools. This is the opportunity to even it out and this recommendation absolutely does not do that. [/quote]

The truth is parents are mostly outraged at the numbers of FARMS kids now attending their kids school.  I guarantee they would have said nothing about utilization rates if two wealthier elementary schools were zoned for Woodward.  This sentiment about FARMS kids does not just apply to these Farmland and Luxmanor parents, it really applies to all these Bethesda and Potomac parents who would be protesting if this situation happened to them.   These families don’t mind financially supporting these FARMS families and schools, but they definitely don’t want them coming to their kids school.  Let’s not kid ourselves that it’s anything other than that….[/quote]
