The Facts About the Districtwide Boundary Analysis

Board of Education president Shebra Evans and Superintendent Jack Smith have sent a letter to the community to clarify misconceptions related to the MCPS Districtwide Boundary Analysis currently underway.  The goal of the districtwide boundary analysis is to help MCPS better understand the impact existing boundaries have on school overcrowding, student diversity and proximity to school. MCPS did not request and will not accept any recommendations for boundary changes/student reassignment. The Board and MCPS will use the data and research in the report to inform future boundary studies.
