[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it does not matter they are magnets or not. local means "no need to spend over 2 hours a day" to commute.[/quote] My kid's magnet school is closer than our assigned home school. Is my kid a "local kid" or a "magnet kid"?[/quote] Many out of boundary kids who attend Blair SMCS live closer to the school than we do and we're in boundary. [/quote] This is because the boundary of Blair are kind of cute. The school has quite extreme location. https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/house_type/?searchQueryState={%22pagination%22:{},%22mapBounds%22:{%22west%22:-77.11435567102342,%22east%22:-76.89153920373826,%22south%22:38.94949872778915,%22north%22:39.04710083249891},%22isMapVisible%22:true,%22mapZoom%22:12,%22schoolId%22:26503,%22filterState%22:{%22enableSchools%22:{%22value%22:true},%22isElementarySchool%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isMiddleSchool%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isPrivateSchool%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isCharterSchool%22:{%22value%22:false},%22sortSelection%22:{%22value%22:%22days%22},%22isCondo%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isMultiFamily%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isManufactured%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isLotLand%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isTownhouse%22:{%22value%22:false},%22isApartment%22:{%22value%22:false},%22price%22:{%22max%22:10000000,%22min%22:6000000},%22monthlyPayment%22:{%22max%22:36570,%22min%22:21942}},%22isListVisible%22:true}[/quote] Because while Blair moved locations, its boundaries, which were based on the old location, never changed. This is a prime example of a boundary that needs to be analyzed and perhaps adjusted. Way to back up the BOE’s argument.[/quote] We're zoned for Blair in South Western SS but are actually closer to BCC. One of my close friend's kids attend Walter Johnson but they're much closer to Wheaton. There are countless examples like this now.[/quote]
