What neighborhood would you recommend to escape these problems?

Oh we left the county.

I assume not to HoCo since they go through boundary assessment every few years, and includes diversity in their assessment, just like MoCo.

I also assume not FCPS because they have the same "diversity" criteria in their boundary analysis that MoCo does.

So, where did you move to that has great schools but the BoE doesn't look at diversity when drawing boundaries?

MoCo doesn't just "look at" diversity when drawing boundaries. The MoCo Board of Ed instituted a new policy a few years that prioritizes diversity as the #1 priority over all other elements (like proximity and stability of school assignment).

False. In each of the boundary studies completed since the policy was revised, other factors have been given priority over diversity.

That's just not true at all.

+1 every boundary option they chose in the end had some balance. They didn't choose the option where diversity was the #1 factor.

So, again, I'm curious to know where the ^^PP moved to that has great schools but doesn't look at diversity in their boundary assessment.

I'm sure once the election is over, the BOE will go back to its radical ways and will actually follow its own policy of prioritizing diversity over all other factors, including stability of school assignments and proximity.

If you live in the neighborhood immediately surrounding the school, you won't be reassigned.
