[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Cold Spring is practically in the Churchill district. It might get redistricted to Churchill, but otherwise there's zero chance it gets moved from Wootton.[/quote]

I would bet on Cold Spring escaping this. I agree that geographically it would make no sense to send Cold Spring neighborhoods to NW, GHS or Rockville HS. However, it doesn't make any sense to bus kids from the areas in Darnestown next to Wootton and QO to NW and now possibly to SV.

Cold Spring has the dubious distinction of being the highest performing elementary school in the county and has lots of asian american families. This puts it right in the target zone for those in and around MCPS drooling at the idea of breaking down the W schools.

If you had told Cold Spring parents several years ago that their kids who scored way higher than everyone else in the county would be barred from the magnet so that lower performing white students living in the DCC could take their spots, they would not have believed it. Yet here we are with TPMS now filled with less than stellar lower scoring DCC kids and all the brilliant Cold Spring kids off to Frost. [/quote]

So there'll be a whole cohort of brilliant kids at Frost, and they won't have to take that dreaded bus ride to Takoma Park. [/quote]
