This
year
marks
the
first
time
that
curriculum
programs
have
been
included
in
the
CIP
planning
process.
In
consideration
of
this,
the
DCC
wishes
to
communicate
the
following:
The
DCC
stands
for
enriching
the
DCC
community
through
its
countywide
programs,
DCC
programs,
and
school-specific
programs.
The
DCC
looks
forward
to
sitting
with
our
friends
and
neighbors
in
a
multi-cluster
roundtable
that
includes
the
Walter
Johnson,
BCC,
and
Whitman
Clusters.
The
DCC
also
recognizes
the
need
to
address
its
future
challenges
by
working
within
the
DCC
and
by
continued
service
to
the
entire
county
through
current
and
future
countywide
programs.
The
DCC
fully
recognizes
the
role
of
academically
rigorous
programs
as
the
foundation
of
successful
schools,
and
by
extension,
successful
communities.
DCC
students
comprise
more
than
22
percent
of
MCPS
students.
A
successful
down
county
is
integral
to
the
success
of
Montgomery
County.
The
DCC
requests
additional
programs
at
Kennedy
and
Northwood
High
Schools,
which
may
have
bearing
on
the
CIP.
Wheaton
High
School
and
Thomas
Edison
High
School
of
Technology
are
integral,
valued
members
of
the
DCC.
Therefore,
student
and
academic
capacity
discussions
must
include
these
schools.
The
DCC
supports
neighborhood
schools,
enriched
by
academically
rigorous,
multicultural
programs
that
enable
college
readiness
and
provide
high
quality
career
and
technical
education
opportunities.
Programmatically
distinct
student
cohorts
from
the
DCC
should
not
be
moved
from
their
current
schools.
DCC
ethnic
and
income
diversity
are
necessary
to
the
success
of
DCC
schools.
DCC
programs
are
integral
to
supporting
this
diversity.
Boundary
studies
addressing
the
holistic
needs
of
the
school
district
may
best
address
MCPS
extensive
capacity
challenges.
Specific
to
discussions
at
the
upcoming
roundtable,
this
holistic
approach
makes
better
sense
than
does
a
piecemeal
approach
of
busing
discreet
bundles
of
students
from
four
DCC
high
schools
to
attend
Woodward
High
School
in
Bethesda.
The
DCC
congratulates
our
neighbors
and
colleagues
in
west
county
on
the
proposed
reopening
of
Woodward
High
School
in
2023.
We
understand
that
multiple
residential
developments
currently
planned
in
west
county
reference
Woodward
High
School
as
a
supporting
educational
resource.
Therefore,
it
is
appropriate
that
Whitman,
BCC,
and
Walter
Johnson
Clusters
are
all
represented
in
the
roundtable
to
coordinate
educational
support
for
development
in
their
geographical
area.
