[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is an accuracy rate in the 90's for the vast majority of schools "unapologectically" inaccurate?  Surely, you don't expect 100%?[/quote]

Don't be dense. A 5-year old can project out 9 months. The School Board makes its decisions based on the out-year projections, and those fall considerably short of anything approaching reliable.[/quote]

With the hi mobility rates of the county it makes it that much more difficult.  I think they do a credible job.  Projections are [i]never[/i] 100% accurate, and expecting them to do so is ridiculous.  The high 90%s are reliable enough.  They show trends.  Just accept the fact that Langley and Cooper will have to expand their borders and Cooper will have to accept is own AAP students that currently already live [i]within[/i] its borders.  [/quote]

DP here.  Why should Cooper and Langley boundaries be expanded again when they are already by far the largest in the county?  Some schools have to be the smallest in the county.  Why does Langley always get to stay out of boundary studies when that might mean sending Langley kids to other schools, or hand-pick other high-income neighborhoods when FCPS decides Langley is too small?   Langley always benefits at the expense of everyone else in the county.
