[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Agree, PP 1000%. The days of tumbleweed blowing through empty classrooms at Cold Spring and DuFief and every other Wootton ES, and Frost MS, are soon to be over. As you said, other nearby clusters are overcrowded. Simply unfair to kids and teachers.[/quote]

I don't know about CS but Dufief and Travilah have never objected to getting more students. Its silly that Falls Grove and Horizon Hills go to RM rather than Wootton. This isn't a new development either. RM, RP, RC and the adjacent schools have been over crowded for a decade. The trends and development possibilities haven't changed in Wootton in 20 years so the idea that MCPS could not have foreseen any of this is ridiculous as they have been sitting in top of it for 10 years.

10-15 years ago MCPS should have established neighborhoods adjacent to Dufief or Wootton as dual enrollment zones. If the neighborhood was adjacent to the boundary then there would be minimal bus impact by adding another stop. This would balance out the capacity without costing a fortune. MCPS won't do something simple like this because they think the neighborhoods adjacent are not poor enough.

MCPS won't do that because MCPS doesn't do that. Also I don't think that there would be anything simple about a dual-enrollment zone.[/quote]
