[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that there’s no reason to add Woodward to the DCC. Wouldn’t it just create a new cluster with boundaries that address overcrowding at WJ and some DCC schools? Or am I missing something?[/quote]

There is no need to make Woodward part of the DCC but they will most likely do it because of optics. If the school board created another W neighborhood school with no outside access while taking a couple of the few nice neighborhoods out of DCC’s Einstein boundary they will be accused of bowing down to the Bethesda parents at the expense of the DCC. Seeing that they are elected officials and how that would play with the SJ crowd. It will be part of the DCC and then over night will become the number one choice of the elective choice process. It will be telling how the DCC parents really think about their local schools when they fight to get into the one Bethesda option.[/quote]

But since all the in-bounds Woodward kids would likely choose Woodward, leaving no real slots open for out-of-bounds dcc kids, why would it make any difference/ help improve the optics of the dcc?  Do people suspect they will make the Woodward catchment area deliberately smaller to leave open spots for other dcc kids?  [/quote]

WJ can take all students except 700 students from current boundary. Woodward capacity will be 2700.

2000 seats will be filled by DCC. You can give and take 100-200 seats, but it's the most logical choice and Woodward should be a part of DCC.[/quote]
