+100, and we are zoned for Einstein.  I know my kid will do the same no matter which school he’s in.  [b]I’d hate
For my kid to be bussed across the county for the sake of diversity [/b]when he can already get that at his home schools, which he can walk to. [/quote]
And they won't. Why do people keep insisting that this is in the cards.  It's not.[/quote]

Sure, but what about places like Churchill and Whitman, where in order to make an impact on diversity, the student would need to be bused quite far?[/quote]

MCPS IS NOT GOING TO REASSIGN KIDS TO SCHOOLS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COUNTY.[/quote]

DP.  But there will be no way to meaningfully diversity Whitman and Churchill without significant bus rides.

So, either MCPS will have to accept fairly segregated schools, notwithstanding their desire to diversify, or they will need to accept longer bus rides, notwithstanding their contention that that won’t happen.

No one knows which route they will choose yet.  But they are both plausible possibilities.[/quote]

Perhaps, but seems like you're jumping to a lot of conclusions prematurely.[/quote]
