[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCC will contribute bulk of 1800 empty seats in Woodward.

BCC sending 400 or Magnet with 400 has slim chance. I am saying this based on MCPS priority and what they have openly stated so far.[/quote]

They are not going to fill a new school to capacity the day it opens. They will leave hundreds of seats open for growth in the region so they don't have to build another school in 5-10 years in the area.[/quote]

I agree with this. If you look at projections, WJ is expected to be another 300 over capacity by 2031. They will need to leave some room for future growth for students actually within the current boundaries. Also, it seems as though people are assuming Woodward is just going to absorb the excess from WJ (~700 students), when in reality, I think they will split the population more equitably (~1,500 students to each school), with the other schools taking additional space. So no, I do not believe that the DCC is going to be filling 2/3 of Woodward, with only 1/3 of the students from the actual surrounding neighborhoods.[/quote]
