MCPS has changed and continues to change drastically. By the time your DC goes to school, it will be a completely different place. [/quote]

Not really...

When our child was four months old the west side of the country was high performing, the east not so much and now that my child is 9 that is still the case.  The major clusters should remain relatively the same while individual school may change slightly or be rezoned.[/quote]

The extremes may not have changed but I think the midtier schools have probably been declining or not the same as they were before.

I made a similar mistake as a previous poster in just focusing on high schools when shopping for homes ten or fifteen years ago and didn't realize that elementary schools that feed into that high school might vary.

In general though it looks like a lot has changed in that area from the time we bought that home until now.

So I think as others mentioned, might not worry about it too much for now until the OP's child is closer to school age.  A lot might change between now and then, including OP's life.  Such as having to relocate due to a new job.[/quote]
