[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the county government is drawing district lines and approving housing developments in certain districts, it is "county" sponsored segregation. It isn't people just deciding to live in certain places or attend certain schools.[/quote] This. It's why there is busing in the South, typically based on FARMs data. And why schools in the South are redistricted often, if they care about economic/racial balance. And why there don't tend to be to many "neighborhood" schools; "neighborhood" schools usually led to imbalance as housing prices shift higher in higher performing areas and lower in lower performing areas. Balancing that is a ship that has sailed in MoCo and maybe even Howard. [/quote]
