[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Do you happen to know if that 30% includes kids go to private schools, magnets or gifted and talented? I would imagine a good chunk of that 30% is private schools but I don’t know.

No, they explicitly said these are public school kids who are not in immersion programs, magnets, or being bused to a more distant school for special needs.

These are regular kids, attending their regular school, but there is another school that is closer to their home. Usually that happens because a new school has opened, or expanded, and without a comprehensive boundary analysis, you end up with boundaries that look like this: http://gis.mcpsmd.org/ServiceAreaMaps/RosemontES.pdf

That one is actually not too too bad. There are worse. MS boundaries are the worst.  I think wxy analysis found that some 37% of MS students don't go to the nearest school.  And we can see that here:
