[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Rosemary Hills/Chevy Chase Elementary schools already have a mix of students from affluent and less affluent homes and a mix of races from Chevy Chase and Silver Springs. Under option 3, instead of these kids attending the same middle school (Silver Creek) and high school (BCC) they will divide this 
cohort of students, who have been together for 6 years, so that they can increase diversity rates at Whitman and Blair. The BCC cluster schools already has diversity.  Option 3 has Silver Spring kids being bussed past BCC to get to Whitman and Chevy Chase kids who live within 1-2 miles from BCC bussed 6 miles to Blair.

Rosemary Hills students split into two elementary schools (North Bethesda and Chevy. Chase), and option 3 ends up splitting students again.

Agree for this particular group of Rosemary Hills kids, it is completely unfair and their cluster needs to be taken off the table. They were the first and only bussed students for years and deserve stability. The diversity by bussing is already there and has been for decades. Pick on someone else. [/quote]

This has been happening for many years to other families.  [/quote]

Option 3 has the Rosemary Hills students (k-2) split into two elementary schools (Chevy Chase and North Chevy Chase) and then into three middle schools and high schools.

Currently the Rosemary Hills students (k-2) split into two elementary schools (Chevy Chase and North Chevy Chase) and then are re-united into the same middle school and high school.

Option 3 is not better for these students.
