[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should just have the Tilden MS kids matriculate to Woodward and add some kids from Einstein and Wheaton to fill the seats. Leave everything else alone.[/quote]

Agree! That’s what I thought they were going to do all along. I mean, what demographics were these maps based off of to begin with? MoCo is still suffering the consequences of the second Trump administration. Uprooting everyone would be a moot point if half the county moves out of state to find new jobs.[/quote]

Agree with all of this. They should open this new school with the least amount of disruptions possible, especially considering how so many kids were impacted by COVID.  Let’s give the majority of kids stability in their lives.  [/quote]

But if the status quo is suboptimal, we shouldn’t stick with it just because change will cause disruption for a couple of years.  Leaders should look beyond only the short term.[/quote]

Suboptimal for whom?  One of the difficulties I had when reviewing the options is that I truly am only truly familiar with the schools in my cluster.  The current situation is actually optimal for the schools in my cluster.  Every option is less favorable than what we currently have.

With all the new building in Rockville and north Bethesda wj and Woodward will be full soon enough again and back at over capacity.   Especially if they put more apartments in. [/quote]

Yes I think the same will be true for RM and Crown. Those four schools should be left with excess capacity for future growth. Feel like the growth is least likely to happen in Whitman, Churchill and maybe Poolesville districts due to lack of new developments.[/quote]
