[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Suddenly, I feel like QO high school is shining great among all 4 options. It is within walking distance, no busing and kids stay together from ES/MS. [/quote]

Great as long as you are not in Kentlands.[/quote]

why[/quote]

Busing the Kentlands to Gaithersburg or Crown is just absurd. Not that I’m not enjoying the maga there whose tiny racist brain cells are exploding about these new boundaries but because they are fiscally irresponsible of the county and stupid. Kentlands walks to QO there is no reality sending them to the other HS makes sense logistically or fiscally.

As for Dufief yes

As for Stonemill out of W again no because W  is already under enrolled. And the mapping logic makes no sense either.

They will do the worst possible senerio people get ready for major bussing. [/quote]

You realize parts of dufief, stone mill and Travilah of basically equidistant to Wootton? And Dufief has maybe 35 kids per grade TOTAL. Dufief is part of the Wootton community, has been since forever. They don’t want to move schools. Moving them doesn’t help anything. Wootton is under enrolled, as you said. Just leave dufief alone. [/quote]

How about just leaving Wootton alone. Why does MCPS create 4 options just to generate fights between different ES within Wootton? That’s pure evil and community dividing. Crown is built to alleviate overcrowding of other schools and Wootton is not overcrowded. None of the four options change diversity of any school so just leave Wootton alone. Don’t make the poorer neighborhoods in Wootton to pay the price just to satisfy this diversity game.

In this case, which school neighborhood should zone to Crown HS? [/quote]

Crown neighborhood, QO, RM, whatever left is overcrowded [/quote]
Neighborhoods near Crown are currently zoned for Wootton. Makes sense to include it.[/quote]

No that is only a bunch of townhouses and maybe some apartments. Not enough to play with Wooton. They should go to crown they are in waking distance but to take Stonemill out of wooton one of its largest feeders is stupid logistics. Wooton is under enrolled. [/quote]

All four options added the whole Wayside ES to Wootton, so Wootton is not under-enrolled when that happens. Wayside doesn't want to go to Wootton anyways. They should leave both Churchill and Wootton alone.[/quote]

100%. Leave them both alone! The overcapacity at Churchill is a bunch of bologna. My neighbors go there and say they don’t think it’s overcrowded at all. In fact it’s got like 50 more kids than it did a few years ago when there were no portables. Was just fine then!

Wootton/Churchill people please sign this petition to keep Wayside in Churchill which could help keep Wootton intact.

Speak for YOURSELF. There are plenty of actual parents at Churchill who SUPPORT Wayside moving and do find the school overcrowded. You clearly haven’t seen how hectic and inefficient fire drills are Churchill are. I was told by someone it took over 5 minutes to evacuate the building during one of the fire drills because of how crowded the stairs were, which created “traffic jams.” Wayside kids will live if they go to Wootton, another highly rated school with a strong community. They won’t live if they’re stuck in a building during a fire. [/quote]

Why don't these parents start a petition moving them out of Churchill? Not rhetorical. [/quote]
