[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But some K-P kids live less than a mile from Einstein and far closer to a school like Rock View (where my kid went on the school bus passing houses where kids went to K-P) or Oakland Terrace.

That never made sense to me.[/quote]

That's because those kids live in the Town of Kensington, which pays its own extra taxes and whose kids all go to the same elementary school named, in part, after their town.

If the Town of Kensington gets rezoned to Einstein, so will Parkwood and so will most of the kids who currently attend Silver Creek MS (no way Kensington gets rezoned to Einstein and then doesn't go to the middle school right across Connecticut Avenue from KP, bordering the Town of Kensington). And if that happens they need to get rid of ESs zoned for Einstein to make room in an already overcrowded high school. These previously Einstein-zoned ESs will most likely be the lowest performing (Highland, Rock View or Oakland Terrace), because they are closest to Wheaton, WJ and Woodward. If this happens Einstein will be an exceptionally good school because it will have 7/10+ schools like Flora Singer and Woodlin, plus KP and kids near the KP zone that attend Silver Creek MS (North Chevy Chase ES kids).

KP goes to Westland not silver creek.
