Option H is permanent and the old Wootton HS campus will be closed for good?

Shout out to you! I am the Cold Spring, Cabin John, Wootton parent that has been accused of being a troll so I went back to read the beginning of this thread and wanted to point out a few things.

See pages 3-6 where I participated in the beginning of this thread.

Pages 8 - 10 are not me but other Pro Option H Wootton parents that make amazing points.

I come back again on Page 69.

So whether you believe it or not ... Pro Option H Wootton parents exist and we are also being heard.

Right. How come none of you bothered to show up to the BOE meeting last week?

Just a heads up that there is more than one person responding to you. Also because as was previously stated...it is not that deep for most people.

Yeah our children’s educational future is definitely “not that deep”.

What exactly will change about your child's educational future that would be negative? All I see are positives... new AV equipment, new chem labs, new computers for AOIT, new athletic spaces....new everything!!! What is the downside from an education perspective? All the same classes, teachers etc just in a new location with better materials....genuine question

Seriously, this sounds much better than an old rundown building with mold issues. Mold can cause long term issues in students and staff so most of us would jump and gladly take the new school.

It’s getting combined with at least one but likely more very low performing schools. Not average-very low performing. That’s the problem. Everything about Wootton will change. So no, not everything will be the same.

Mixing with those kids is a fate worse for your children than mold?

Did you actually look at the proficiency breakdown for math and english? I’m going to guess no since you clearly looked up the school and posted this but yet still managed to spell the name of the school wrong. Anyway-the kids in this school didn’t even meet 50% proficiency for either of those. That’s awful.

Fair enough, that's not great!

Still, I'm kind of taken aback that you consider having maybe 20% of your HS coming from a lower-performing elementary school to be worse for your kids than being exposed to mold. You realize your kid can take mostly APs and avoid those icky low-proficiency kids, right?

Wow. You think you are being sarcastic/funny but “icky low proficiency kids” is actually gross. I want my kids going to school with kids that can meet the extremely minimal requirements for proficiency-yes. That doesn’t mean I think these kids are “icky” I think these kids need intensive extra services to get them where they need to be. But not at the expense of my kids. If I wanted my kid to go to GHS-I would have moved to that cluster.

You’re the one talking about these kids as if being in the same building with them will somehow harm your child, when in high school students can mostly choose the classes appropriate to their academic level.

Yeah they don’t ever eat lunch in the cafeteria or take electives. In high school you only have contact with the kids in your main classes and that’s it.

Oh, so this gets closer to it....if your concern is general exposure to these kids in the building as this indicates (as opposed to being in the same classes for instruction) what is your actual concern? It isn't test scores, so what is it....

I don’t think it will harm my child individually, but it will harm the school. The numbers for the school as a whole will go down. That’s how that works.

So? You admit that doesn’t affect your kid individually, so why does it matter?

Research, as discussed earlier on this thread, actually indicates that in the aggregate the scores on the lower end will increase, as opposed to the scores on the high end going down. So...this is a benefit to the lower scoring kids and no harm to the higher scoring kids.

How does a slightly lower test score harm "the school."?

It's rush hour. I just drove by Wootton HS on the way to Downtown Crown. It took a whole 10 minutes. My day is ruined and the wheels on my car might fall off now. How could anyone deal with this daily. There is no justice in this world!

This is simply a lie. it doesn’t take 10 minutes when it’s not rush hour. There is no way you did it in 10 at this time unless you were breaking the law in every possible way.

This thread has jumped the shark. It has devolved into cries of racism against anyone opposing Option H. The trolls doing this know it’s not true. Wootton families want to keep their school and the reputation 3 generations of graduates have built. MCPS wants to cover up its mistakes and is pushing Option H as quickly as possible with every bit of energy it can muster.

Wootton families overwhelming don’t want Option H. MCPS doesn’t care and its cheerleaders on this thread don’t either. They hide behind illusory savings and best interests of MCPS - but there are no hard numbers to back any of this up. MCPS is simply trying to run out the clock.

I genuinely do not. I never referenced equity, and am not a huge proponent of it the way it is popularly understood today. I honestly do not know what you even mean by the phrase "harm the school." The building? The students? And if the high achievers stay the same and the low achievers go slightly up....I see no plausible case for harm regardless of what you mean by "the school."

[Anonymous]

Question for the H-opponents based on a belief that it lowers the test scores of the entire school:

If the development going up across the street were a true low-income complex that would attract families from the current schools with "low test scores", would you object to that development on those grounds? If not why not?

I know a lot of Wootton families are genuinely concerned with the loss of walkability. But we have at least 1 poster saying they’re concerned about their child sharing a cafeteria with kids who attended Rosemont ES. That’s not necessarily the “R” word (which I didn’t use), but it’s certainly snobbery.
