[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read a lot of “boundary changes for thee, but not for me, unless we get moved to a higher rated school.”. So, will the consequence be depopulated lower rated schools, to point where even fewer advanced classes will be offered at them? Feels quite NIMBY-ish to me, and “screw them for being poor.”.[/quote] Not every lower rated school is losing kids or ignored. Both Justice and West Potomac had growing enrollments and got generous additions outside the renovation queue. If those schools deserved additions, so too do Kilmer MS in the Marshall pyramid and McLean HS. As for the lower performing schools that are losing kids, we should look at the root causes first before changing boundaries. For example, reinstating AP at Lewis and Mount Vernon would stem a decent number of pupil placements out of those schools (although Mount Vernon may be a special case to the extent military families at Fort Belvoir have special transfer options).
