[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know what’s going on with WJ regarding overcrowding? Heard about a new high school to split up WJ. Sorry I am new to this area[/quote]

Lots of schools are overcrowded. So happy to hear that MCPS is prioritizing the richest kids though. 🙄[/quote]

Hate to break it to you, but WJ and the high schools in the DCC are not the richest kids in MCPS.  And, this has been in the works for over 10 years. The WJ people have been fighting for relief from overcrowding, while MCPS said it wouldn't happen[/quote]

The surrounding areas that will get chosen are the more comfortable areas of DCC.[/quote]

1. Nobody knows which areas will be chosen.
2. The "more comfortable areas of the DCC" are not "surrounding" or even anywhere near Woodward.[/quote]

Sure, we do, aside from WJ and Einstein, the other nearby school boundaries like Wheaton and, BCC since it was even mentioned in the original plan.[/quote]

Adrienee Karamihas knows exactly which neighborhoods are going to the new Woodward HS.[/quote]

:roll: She may know which neighborhoods/clusters are going to be included in the boundary study, but no, nobody knows exactly which neighborhoods are going to Woodward.[/quote]

She does.  [/quote]

Sure, whatever you like to tell yourself.

Things no one knows yet:
-how long the Woodward construction will actually take
-when the boundary study will take place
-what the enrollment and projections of WJ and the DCC high schools will be during the spring/summer of the boundary study, and the following fall's official enrollment
-who will be working in central office that year
-who will be on the BOE that year[/quote]

The Woodward construction is already well underway.  There's a construction website if you are confused. 
Karimihas has been at MCPS for almost 25 years. She will be there after this superintendent and BOE.  Administrators outlast the faces the public sees. 
She's got this all planned out.  She won't tell you, but she knows. The BOE is and always is irrelevant to these decisions. BOE members do what they are
told to do.  [/quote]

The opening date was just recently moved back from 2025 to 2026. Who knows what will happen over the next 4 years? It could easily be delayed again.[/quote]
