If they get rid of the 25 set aside the magnet will be limited to 100 students per cohort year. It will not open 25 spots to additional students because there is no available space (the school is over capacity). The 25 inboundary students don't change the capacity number for the building as they would attend the school with or without the magnet.

Yup, and then the top 25 inbound students are added to the competition for the 100 slots so the size of the magnet available to out-of-bounds students goes down. But these parents would do it just for spite.[/quote]

I don't 25 seats are going to kill any overall capacity numbers. MCOS does nothing at schools that are 400-600 over capacity all the time so 25 is nothing. The 25 in bound seats really should be available to the entire DCC not just the TP area. I agree that Bethesda and Potomac people or Rockville Asians should be kept where they belong in their own schools but the other DCC schools should get a shot at the easy seats.[/quote]

Is it too late to add B-CC to the DCC now that there's something in it for us?[/quote]

No, we don't want you all joining us!  You slam our schools constantly, so no, you cannot join.  Move to an area it serves.   Problem solved.[/quote]
