I'm 7:09.  I agree with you, but how would those parents be doing that?  I don't see that at all.  [b]They would simply be choosing to go to their zoned school instead of taking on the commute of the magnet[/b].

No, they would be choosing to go to their zoned school instead of taking on the commute of the magnet AND THAT WOULD BE BAD FOR MCPS. That's the implication.[/quote]

7:09 again.  But *wouldn't it* in fact be bad for MCPS if MCPS wants to end segregated schools by income?  Didn't *MCPS itself* communicate that that would be bad for MCPS by setting up the system to intentionally slow segregated schools?  That's my question.  Serious question.  I'm not saying that situation would be right or wrong--not issuing any kind of moral judgment one way or the other but I think it's undeniable that MCPS itself would be the ones unhappy by their own design.  Again, am I missing something?  [/quote]

No, it would not be bad for MCPS if the "take my ball and go home" PP took their child out of the magnet program and put the child back into the home school. Why would it be? Everybody agrees that there are far more qualified applicants for the spots than there are spots. The magnet program will get along just fine without the PP's child.[/quote]
