| He should close all the language immersion programs. They really aren't effective and the kids in those programs are often behind in learning foundational math and reading skills. |
Yes, but when some get desperate they need someone to blame and absorb anger, even if it makes no sense. Perhaps even a minority the same way DuFief is the second smallest school in the county. Hmmm, when in history have we seen this kind of dictatorship-mentality blame a minority group for their own shortcomings? They do say history repeats itself… |

How entitled! You welcomed WHO into a high school that was never built for you and your cluster in the first place??? And how insane and entitled that you’re fine moving provided you can be with the same white and Asian dominated populations you’ve always been with all along. And you want us to believe the sole reason is because of a City of Gaithersburg fee? Do you think we are dumb and can’t see through you?
Let me get this straight. If fallsmead were broken off the way DuFief was to be sent to a new crown without any other neighboring schools you’d be fine with it? We all know you wouldn’t for the sole argument of being isolated from the only cluster you’ve been a part of for 50 years. Sure, make whatever disparaging remarks you want to (you know, to try to bolster your weak argument) but we know no elementary school in the cluster would have been ok with that. And you try to act so righteous, you little pea brain. |
Dufief was not aligned with anti-h to begin with. To my knowledge, there was no sellout as I’m pretty sure I remember them being honest from the beginning. When it was made very clear there was no emergency fund for Wootton, they pivoted to make the most of what was offered and leaned into the option that kept them in the cluster. Do you feel they were misleading you/your community? Like, honestly? |
What’s with the Elmer Fudd weference? |
Actually they were number of Dufief folks who literally testified against option H, and then Dufief changed its tune. |
They “literally” did not. Dufief testified against A-D requesting to stay with the Wootton cluster if one of those options came to pass. Once E-H were released Dufief didn’t testify until the most recent meeting. It was almost all anti H and crown community pro modified H. Keep up! |
Citation needed. Please go on boarddocs and link to the testimony you speak of. Otherwise, we know this is fake news. |
So you’re telling me there were a number of Dufief folks who were against H and then they changed their minds? Still not seeing the problem here as I imagine they changed their minds as they learned more or additional options came out. What makes that back-stabbing? People are allowed to change their minds and based on testimonies it was all publicized. And if these individuals didn’t testimony, then how do you know? |
It’s only “backstabbing” if you think the definition of backstabbing is somebody having a thought or opinion that is different from you. It’s so triggering for them. So if we completely change the whole definition of backstabbing, sureeeeee…. Their whole MO is really to silence people through bullying. |
Sorry, I’m not following. You (or whoever's post it was) had referred to Dufief as backstabbing but from what you explained, it sounds like you meant to refer to them as bullies. I don’t agree as there was a lot of outreach and attempts to coordinate with an anti-h group but due to the tactics used from the other side, it didn’t pan out. Dufief didn’t wilt and wallow, though - just pivoted and took things into our own hands. Not sure what else to say, most others would have done the same if in the same situation. |
Dufief didn’t backstab. Wootton is bullying by using “backstabbing” claims in order to continue silencing anyone who supports H. |
| This thread is out of control. |
LOL best comment |
| DuFief was just renovated PLUS it is one of the 13 learning centers in the county with students being bussed in from all over. Why in the world would they close DuFief?? |
