[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh, CGES parent here. This whole thing is just too much, we just went through RMES#5 boundary craziness, I just cant even think about yet another messed up study. Hopefully this will happen after my kid is done with school. FWIW, I dont mind going to Crown, but I would mind going to Gaithersburg, if we are zoned there, we will go private[/quote]

How can you say you would not mind going to Crown (which does even exist) but would mind going to a future Gaithersburg with very different boundaries?  Gaithersburg will likely lose some lower income neighborhoods to Crown and gain some upper income neighborhood from RM (King Farm or Derwood).  It may end up being very similar to the current RM.  I do cringe at the craziness involved though.[/quote]
+1. If they do redone the whole area, Gaithersburg and RM will not look like they currently do.[/quote]

CGES PP here. My opposition to Gaithersburg HS is not (at least entirely) based on current demographics of the school, as they will change. It is based mostly on the area where said school is located. The school is next to very nice park, BUT it is also across the street from one of the sketchiest establishments in the area. I think the place was finally closed down last year, but for years there was a drug market across the school with a front of antique shop/restaurant. My step son got busted buying drugs there twice, so not hearsay.[/quote]

So your opposition to your kids attending Gaithersburg in the future is a problem that has already gone away?[/quote]
