No. They are not going to come up with boundary options. This is not a boundary study. (In MCPS, "boundary study" means "the thing you do preparatory to changing school boundaries.") This is a comprehensive data analysis. In order to actually change boundaries, there will have to be boundary studies (i..e., the thing you do preparatory to changing school boundaries).
There will certainly be a boundary study (i.e., the thing you do preparatory to changing school boundaries) for Woodward HS, before it opens. There will also certainly be a boundary study (i.e., the thing you do preparatory to changing school boundaries) for Crown HS, before it opens.

No, it really doesn't work that way.
Also, it's not a boundary study. (In MCPS, boundary studies are for the purpose of establishing school boundaries.) It's an analysis of school boundaries.
Reading if fundamental.
Here's what WXY is actually doing:
The team will produce three (3) boundary plan options. The boundary plan
options will include a synthesis of data analysis including analysis of existing
cluster boundaries and enrollment projections to school capacity and the
set of factors which inform the scenarios.
Ohhh good lordy. Just like the Upcounty study followed by options presentation, recommendations and approval. This is going to get u-g-l-y. Winners and losers. Good luck yall.

Exactly! Come to the meeting tonight. Ask these questions!

Will there be any MCPS leadership there? I went to one a few months ago, run by some consultant they hired, and no one from the Board of Ed was there, nor any high-ranking MCPS officials.

Thank you for clarifying that for everyone. Nonetheless, and semantics notwithstanding, this is YOUR time to learn first hand what this analysis of school boundaries mean to you. Ask your questions and decide for yourself how the potential changes may impact you. Don't make assumptions. Ask your questions now.
To the other PP, I do not know if there will be live streaming.
