[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m pro boundary changes and I don’t understand why it takes them so long to do them. School boundaries should be more dynamic. My elementary school is currently very overcrowded because they opened a new development. But the other two elementary schools which are 1/4 mile and 1 mile away are under enrolled.

What we need is a neutral boundary change process that depends on data and not humans to do it. I’m sick of Gerrymandered boundaries. [/quote]

School boundary rezonings should require a residdncy check of all schools under consideration for rezoning.

The kids from out of boundary should be removed before any in boundary students . . . [/quote]

Residency verification is LONG overdue.

Gatehouse (FCPS) employs exactly ONE PERSON responsible for residency verification, for the entire, enormous, county.[/quote]

This is the way to stop the boundary change and also to get an accurate picture of where change might truly be needed in isolated situations. Every single family in FCPS should demand residency verification at minimum for transition years like elementary to middle and middle to high school. This isn't a political issue. It's an issue of whether kids are actually attending their zoned schools or schools in the county where they reside. Gatehouse and Reid have pushed back suspiciously hard whenever it gets brought up.
