[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone just confirm- to the best of your knowledge they won’t redistrict Whitman to go to Woodward?[/quote]

Correct. MCPS has consistently stated for years now that it is reopening Woodward "to address the urgent space needs at the Downcounty Consortium high schools and Walter Johnson High School." Whereas Whitman just had an addition completed and is now under capacity, and is projected to remain so.[/quote]

Yes, but that doesn't mean that they're just going to bus kids across the DCC to Woodward. It means kids from adjacent boundaries will be rezoned for Woodward and as space propagates through adjacent zones it will make room at other DCC schools. As much as greater diversity would be beneficial especially with the W's, diverting more funds away from education into transportation seems counterproductive.[/quote]
Kids don’t have to be bussed across the DCC to get to Woodward there are several feeders to Einstein and Wheaton that would be considered adjacent to Woodward. How exactly would adjusting boundaries of non DCC schools to populate Woodward create more space in the DCC schools? This makes no sense. [/quote]
