Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is conducting a boundary study in preparation for major changes, including the opening of Crown High School (which will impact our cluster), the expansion of Damascus High School, and the reopening of Charles W. Woodward High School. These changes will affect school boundaries and access to academic programs across the county.
MCPS is also analyzing academic programs to ensure equitable access for all students to high-quality learning opportunities that meet the needs of our diverse student body.
How You Can Help:
Your voice is critical. These decisions will impact our students and schools for years to come.
Please also take a few minutes to complete the CJMS & MCPS Family Survey, open now through June 9, 2025. – Your feedback will help CJMS understand what’s working well and where we can grow — both at CJMS and across the broader Montgomery County Public Schools system.
