You sure do love hiding behind your percentages. However, these numbers back up my assertion that's white people are fleeing MCPS
# white students in MCPS
2000 - 65,849
2005 - 58,780
2010 - 49,795
2015 - 47,331
2020 - 41,455
Total # MCPS kids 2000-2020
134,308 to 160,564

Where are all these fleeing people? We're still crowded in our schools.
Look at MCOS's demographics and which schools are overcrowded or underattened and it'll tell you exactly who and where the people fled from. Hint: UMC white people are leaving in droves white dirt poor Hispanics are flooding in. The problem is that those UMC white people are taking their UMC money with them.
Overcrowded schools like Churchill and WJ?
I mean sure. You'll find a few overcrowded W schools that haven't been renovated in decades. But for the most partz overcrowding is happening where Hispanic immigrants flock. And again, check MCPS demographic. Whitee is headed for greener (or more correctly redder) pastures.
Dp..
I don't think is accurate. If we look at HS with a high population of Hispanics:
SVHS before the redrawing of boundaries was under capacity.

Springbrook is also under capacity
https://ww2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/regulatoryaccountability/glance/fy2019/schools/04798.pdf
Which schools have a high % of Hispanic immigrants?
My point was that UMC white people are fleeing the system and being replaced by poor Hispanics, mainly immigrants. This article backs that up:. https://bethesdamagazine.com/january-february-2020/figuratively-speaking-12
31.1 – Percentage of students who are Hispanic/Latino (up from 13.9%)
27.7 – Percentage of students who are white (down from 51.9%)
33.3 – Percentage of students participating in free and reduced-price meals (up from 22.5%
That article says exactly nothing about white people "fleeing the system."

Looks like they are putting a STEM/IT/Bioscience focus in the school. That's great. IMO, it will be great school.
Yes it will be a great school. But if your kids are the first ones going to a brand new high school, that’s still a big impact on their future.
Huh...how so?
A brand new school needs several years to establish and also let colleges familiarize with it.
A brand new school will attract some of the best, enthusiastic teachers to join the school. Colleges don’t need to be “familiar” with it. They know MCPS and the curriculum. Kids won’t be impacted just because they go to a new school.
Well they will be. Imagine until 10th grade they’re with their friends, then they’re bused to a brand new high school.

No. They will walk to the new school in their neighborhood, along with all of their friends in the neighborhood.
Except crown area, who’s walkable to crown high school? Certainly not most of Wootton
Typically, if you live within 2 miles of a HS, you're in the walk zone.
No nobody in Wootton is within 2 miles of crown except that triangle
Not true. Parts of Stone Mill and Lakewood are also within 2 miles of Crown.
More than 2 miles, but less than 2.5 miles
The neighborhoods along Darnestown Rd between Travilah and Muddy Branch are about 1.5 to 2 miles away.

Crown, Rio, those apartments on Shady Grove Road, Decoverly, some of the neighborhood across Muddy Branch from Belward Farm, maybe Lakelands Ridge... That's all on the one side of 270. There's more on the other side of 270, but I don't think MCPS would expect kids walk over 270 on Shady Grove Road, because that walk is awful. On the other hand, MCPS expects Blair kids to walk over the Beltway on University.
