[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]Elementary schools should be walking distance or close to it.[/b] Drawing boundaries all over the county to make it all equal would cost a fortune in bussing and create a less-involved community. Plus, parents of kids in poor schools aren't the issue. These are parents that are middle class trying to move a little bit higher up the ladder. [/quote] Why? I grew up in the northern part of the county. There was nothing "walking distance or close to it" to my house except farms. The whole county doesn't look like Rockville/Bethesda/Silver Spring.[/quote] When you grew up in the northern part of the county, it was farms and you were bussed to the closest school. You weren't bussed 30min to Rockville, correct? And I am pretty sure we are talking about NOW and pretty much all areas have an elementary school within 10min bussed. You wanting kids bussed all over to appease this perfection of FARMS will never ever happen. [/quote]
