Imagine what it would do to the real estate market in Montgomery County if more people realized that "good schools" is not synonymous with "schools with small percentages of kids classified as FARMS, Hispanic, and black".[/quote]

Yep. Mcps will drive everything into the ground, starting with the curriculum, ending with the property values.[/quote]

I think you misunderstood what I said.

There are people who think that schools with low percentages of kids classified as FARMS, Hispanic, and black are good schools, and schools with higher percentages of kids classified as FARMS, Hispanic, and black are bad schools. These people are wrong. There are schools with low percentages of kids classified as FARMS, Hispanic, and black that are not good schools. There are schools with higher percentages of kids classified as FARMS, Hispanic, and black that are good schools.

If more people realized this, then yes, property values in the "W"-school zones would probably go down. But property values in the rest of the county would go up. [/quote]

And yes, the 205 school giant beast called MoCoPS has way more than a handful of "good schools." [/quote]
