[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't matter.  They will never change the socioeconomic makeup of the W schools...as much as they would like.  It's just to difficult with the geography.  They claim that adjustments would be made with adjacent schools, which will accomplish nothing.  Thy only way they will make any impact to diversity in these schools is to create islands and bus across the county...and the board has already said this will not happen.  So we (W school people) have nothing to worry about.[/quote]

There are plenty of folks who can be moved, with detrimental results to their families.  We already know from previous such experiments in other counties, that busing does not help underachieving children, so this is not about education.  It's about redistributing wealth, social equity at the expense of middle class families, basically socialism.

WJ will certainly be impacted, and then likely many other neighborhoods along 270 where "good" and "bad" schools share a boundary.

I have come to believe that what I would like to see is a hard look at the boundaries in Takoma Park.  I think that's the only way this runaway train of redistricting can be stopped, if the Takoma Park crowd has as much at stake as WJ / Wootton parents do.[/quote]
