Shame about their mom though.

For those who couldn’t get in, it just feels like a sinking ship. If you think MCPS is stellar, that’s great, we could always agree to disagree.
It's interesting that this is already a 5 pages thread about "13 MCPS HS decline in state rankings " because of absenteeism, but there was no thread about the 20 MCPS HS that made the AP honor roll not too long ago.
I guess that doesn't fit the narrative.

This is untrue. Back in 2018 they definitely did not alter the boundary policy to make diversity a lot more important than it was previously and definitely didn't order a boundary study that definitely wasn't designed to usher in diversity busing.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Poolesville High school 5 stars

So does anyone know which 13 schools the article refers to? I can’t believe there are five pages of discussion but no info on the entire premise of the article.
