[quote=Anonymous]"So what is the solution? Forced busing? Open all schools to lottery so that all kids might be bused 2-3 hours each day to school? ...I'm wondering what *specifically* MoCo and MCPS should do beyond what it's doing? " uh, yeah. The county's schools that have highly concentrated high wealth populations of kids are not wildly far away from the areas with the highest concentrations of FARMS kids. I don't think a lottery is best though since that would send the buses every which way. But linking up larger sections of high FARMs areas as within the attendance zone for currently low FARMs areas so that you equalize a bit more the level of FARMs kids that any one school might have - sorry, I just don't see that as wildly insane especially when a really big chunk of both groups is in the southern portion of the county - it's not like we're talking about the need to bus from Clarksburg to CC.
