Crestwood Area Redistricting Study
Scope of Work
The purpose of this redistricting study is to adjust attendance boundaries between Crestwood, Ballenger Creek, Gov. Thomas Johnson (west of the Monocacy River), West Frederick, and Monocacy middle schools in order to balance enrollments between these schools once the addition to Crestwood MS has been completed. This redistricting is in conjunction with an addition to Crestwood Middle. Elementary schools included in this redistricting study are Ballenger Creek, Butterfly Ridge, Carroll Manor, Hillcrest, Lewistown (Monocacy Middle school feeder portion), Lincoln, Monocacy, North Frederick, Orchard Grove, Parkway, Spring Ridge (west of the Monocacy River), Tuscarora, Waverley, Whittier, and Yellow Springs; high schools included in this study are Frederick, Governor Thomas Johnson (west of the Monocacy River), and Tuscarora. These elementary and high school boundaries will be adjusted as necessary to preserve feeder patterns.
FCPS facilities planning staff will lead the redistricting study. Transportation, fiscal services, curriculum, and communication staff, as well as school administration, will also assist with the study. The redistricting study will be guided by Board of Education Policy 200 and Regulation 100-02.

FCPS understands the significant impact a redistricting has on multiple school communities, families and students. We have heard the request for consideration of additional options and the need for additional community meetings to comment on any new options. Over the summer, FCPS staff will evaluate the feedback received so far and develop an additional option or options for discussion with the community in the fall. Staff will work with the Board of Education to revise the current schedule, and allow for any additional options to be presented to the community in August and September 2023. While a vote to approve or reject the recommendation was originally scheduled for September 13, 2023, the original project schedule will be revised to reflect the additional community engagement opportunities. The redistricting study schedule will be updated on the website as dates become finalized.
