[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are the Rose Hill parents so quiet this morning after last night’s light testing?

I’m curious if the lights bleed or glared into your house or windows, cause any issues on I-270/Falls Road, or anything else?[/quote]
I live near Wootton. I can hear their marching band and Friday night football games and the announcer *very* clearly until sometimes almost 10pm, when my kids are asleep. It's noise pollution. Should I complain to MCPS and the city?[/quote]

you moved near a school that has been doing that for decades.  too bad your kids are sleeping, soon your kids will be those kids at the school.  [/quote]

No, because of boundary changes, my kids can not walk to middle school Frost or high school at Wootton. They have to be bused to Richard Montgomery a few miles away unfortunately.  [b]They needed higher SES levels and we were the neighborhoods to go.[/b]  Walkers that are now bused to a subpar school.   [/quote]

This happened in 1987. Were you living there then?[/quote]

I always see this person making these comments.  It’s so darn weird.  She certainly bought well after the boundary change, probably in the last 10 years yet acts like she’s been harmed by it.[/quote]

I am not that person (and my kids both had good experiences at RM!) but I think she is pointing out that boundary changes can have drastic affects on home prices..positive and negative.[/quote]

Over THIRTY-TWO YEARS, a great number of things can have drastic effects on home prices.

I am just curious what other effects that change home prices? It is obvious as we are house hunting right now that prices between school boundaries are what causes similar style and aged homes to be various prices - like big increases and decreases. Our real estate agent said the same thing.  King Farm is the SAME development and the side that goes to Gaithersburg are about $75,000 less than the side that goes to Richard Montgomery. In Derwood, the homes that go to Richard Montgomery are much higher than the ones that go to Magruder.  Same style homes.  I don't see any other difference.  The homes in Dufief go for way too much.  They are in terrible condition.  The only thing they have going for them?  Wootton school district.  So I am just curious what other things besides boundary changes, decrease home prices so drastically.  [/quote]

But all the larger single family homes are on the RM side so it is hard to compare.[/quote]
