[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like every single option except for #3 actually makes demographic disparities worse and benefits richer schools over poorer schools. And since the rich parents always seem to win in this county, I can't imagine we're actually going to get #3.  This sucks.

Option 3 takes kids who currently live NEXT to Whitman and busses them to bcc.  So no, you’re not going to get option 3.  (And my kids don’t go there but it’s never going to happen).[/quote]

Option 3 takes us from BCC (where kids can walk) to Blair. Not to mention puts kids into the middle school at Takoma Park.[/quote]

The walking zones around BCC on the maps seem wrong.  I live less than one mile away from BCC, on the east side of  Connecticut Ave., but the maps indicate that the walking zone ends on the west side of Connecticut Ave.  The walk zone for high school is supposed to be two miles.  I see kids from my neighborhood walking to BCC, so I don’t understand why the map places my neighborhood outside of the walk zone. [/quote]
