[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With so many factors to balance in determining a final call, MCPS should not consider two things: 1) Property value 2) Busing (the most terrible idea since its inception)[/quote] MCPS and the BOE do not co sider either of those 2 factors. Many inn-informed people who testify bring up property values, whis is an immediate turn off to the Board. Read the room, and advocate for what matters. To the Board of Education, property values ain't it. They do not consider "busing," however they do consider walkability. So if your student is 1 mile from an ES, 1.5 miles from a MS, and 2 miles from a HS, they are in the walk zone for that school, which is seen as a positive. [b]If there's a major road inbetween home and the school (Beltway, Georgia, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Old Georgetown, River, and others), even if close enough, they will get a bus[/b][/quote] Not necessarily.[/quote]
