[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is a mark of how crazy this thread is that someone is seriously suggesting that kids in downtown Bethesda be sent to a different school if they live in one of the buildings being built.[/quote]
I am not sure what post you are referring to and I have not posted about this, but I would certainly think it should be an option to consider. If RH has spare capacity which is not available at Somerset or Bethesda ES, then why not carve out a section of new apartments in Bethesda and send those kids there. Forgotten in all of this is that Westbrook ES is significantly under capacity. I don't see why it should be a problem that if overcrowding at a school is being caused new residents in 2 or 3 apartment buildings and space is available that can accommodate those kids in a nearby school. Then this is the most logical and efficient outcome. It is precisely what is being done now to kids in apartments in Lyttonsville who get shipped off to CC and NCC. They have even separated the divide by buildings between the two schools and it was worst in the past when those buildings were actually separated into 3 different schools. There is no difference in my mind and this is not even controversial to me. It surprises me that you think it's "crazy" actually.[/quote]
