How about everyone else? [/quote] Option 1 from the initial options but moving Wheaton Woods to WJ or Woodward (ideally WJ) https://sites.google.com/mcpsmd.net/boundarystudyoptions/home/woodward-initial-options[/quote] Use the current options. Which do you like in order for A-D[/quote] I don't really like any of them. I dislike D the least, followed by A, B and C which I dislike the most.[/quote] I prefer status quo too, but reality is change is coming. I dislike D the most. Why do you dislike it the least? [/quote] Because it doesn't leave 3 DCC schools overcrowded while WJ and Woodward are left 20% empty[/quote] Woodward is meant to solve WJ issues of over crowding. You need a buffer because very soon WJ and Woodward will be at capacity. The master plan has housing congregate on the Pike and throughout WJ. Just take a drive through and see the development going up. And maybe one day Lerner will put something at White Flint. And it's silly to say DCC pays more taxes than the West side of the county, bc that's not true. Option D is the worst[/quote] WJ taxpayers didn't pay for even half of Woodward. GMAFB and learn some basic math.[/quote] Show your math. And I don't mean Eureka place value discs and number bonds. Real math. WJ definitely paid for Woodward. Not the DCC and many of whom don't pay any tax and most of whom receive benefits (see FARMS).[/quote] You're the one demanding to hoard a school paid for by 1 million people, ALL of whom pay taxes, for a community of 40000-60000. Yes, everyone pays property taxes either directly or indirectly.[/quote] Go lobby for your own new school. Clearly you are inept and were incapable. Us in the WJ area are far more clever and resourceful. Your only hope would be the govt granted lottery to maybe re zone you into Woodward or WJ. You want a handout . Standard FARMS DCC[/quote] By resourceful you mean good at taking resources meant for everyone and claiming them as your own[/quote] That's option D. [/quote] Please elaborate. This should be fun.[/quote] DCC and those who want option D take from those who pay more taxes (by virtue of being higher income you pay more tax), and claiming them as your own because your poor (yes, you and your neighbors don't make as much money... It's not just a lifestyle choice to live in a 1950s ranch or a 1960s era apt or next to MS13). The county's own data clearly illustrates the poverty and thus lower income in the FARMS data for DCC. By virtue of being FARMS, at double and triple the rates of schools like WJ, BCC, Whitman, you inherently pay less income tax because your income is lower. Your landlords pay your property tax. Your personal share of that particular property tax is also lower because the property are worth less than those in WJ, etc https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zOiiclIJIYTpJu8QkeZtMYQ_ho2xGcx7/view[/quote] What does this have to do with Option D? What are your problems with it?[/quote] To be blunt, it has the highest FARMS rates for Woodward and WJ than the others. Woodward crosses the "20% tipping point" where the community is less served. We don't need another bad school Moreover, it draws the map for areas that weren't meant to be included in the Woodward zone. By that I mean, current WJ has more development coming. Why push the limits to DCC more with this map? It will be a problem for WJ/Woodward espexially. County ignored this population boom in the rockville study for the elementary that became Bayard Rustin . [/quote] Thanks for highlighting that. Choosing Option D now.[/quote] You were going to anyway. Don't worry the rest of us are more resourceful to snuff it out. [/quote] I don't think you'll be able to convince even a single member of the BOE to think like you do, let alone five of them.[/quote]
