Of course not. What they say is "This is a good school"/"That is a bad school". What they also say is, "MCPS must not change reassign my house from [School With Higher Average Standardized Test Scores (And Fewer Poor Kids)] to [School with Lower Average Standardized Test Scores (And More Poor Kids)] because that will be bad for my property values!" And yes, people do say that, in person, at public meetings, in real life. I know because I have been at public meetings where people said that.[/quote]
