Stone Mill, Travilah, Dufief, Fields, Rosemont @ THE brand new Crown Farm North Potomac High School[/quote]

Please keep Travilah out of this. Travilah overwhelmingly do not want H and want to stay with Fallsmead and Lakewood at Wootton. Our recent school wide survey showed over 87% of Travilah families oppose going to Crown.

I can’t speak for Stone Mill, but it sounds like only Dufief wants to go, which by all means please go but stop trying to lump Travilah with you.

We don’t stand with Dufief[/quote]

It’s only 2.6 miles to QOHS from Travilah. I wonder if BOE knows this. Just saying…[/quote]

And? Dufief is even closer to QO and closer to Crown.

[b]Not to mention Travilah boundaries are kind of crazy. Lots of Travilah ES families actually live closer to Churchill.[/b] [/quote]

This is demonstrably false. I just checked. The boundary between Travilah and Potomac ES is Travilah Road. The farthest south section of the Travilah district, which is the Canal Vista neighbourhood, which stands at:

- 6.6 mi from Quince Orchard
- 7.6 mi from Crown
- 8.1 mi from Wootton 
- 9.7 mi from Churchill

Travilah should be QO <3 <3 [/quote]

O you straight up have no idea what Travilah boundaries are [/quote]

Oh, I straight up do.  I used the map and checked via the MCPS GIS school assignment tool.  Travilah's boundaries going towards the river extend significantly to the west. That's the opposite direction of Churchill, hon.   [/quote]

I’ll use a shopping center without doxing where I live. But look at the Potomac oak shopping center. I am zoned for Travilah but Churchill by distance and time is the closest school to me. [/quote]

Distance to High Schools from the Potomac Oak Shopping Center:

QO: 4 miles

Crown: 5.7 miles

Wootton: 6.2 miles

Churchill: 6.2 miles

...

The area to the East of that shopping center (ie to the East of Travilah road on Gled rd) is districted to Potomac and Churchill, so I know you can't live closer to Churchill than that.

Quince Orchard is triumphant again :)[/quote]

But how can Travilah go to QO when Dufief is closer. Dufief is less than two miles depending on where one lives.

We insist Dufief go to QO.[/quote]

You’re so scared that you can’t even admit many homes in Travilah are actually closer to QO than any other HS.

At least Dufief is realistic - we’ve already been apparently closed and divided to Stone Mill and Travilah so in the upcoming ES boundary study we will be in fact moving to QO with Travilah and Crown with Stone Mill.

The irony is that Wootton Walkers will now share a holding school with Magruder @ Wootton on the Parkway. It’s the perfect plan. [/quote]
