What kind of colleges do Wootton grads attend?

The upper tier cluster has ancient buildings - some of the oldest in the system. You paid 500,000 plus for your house and your kids are falling through the cracks due to politics. Gaithersburg high is brand new - and your tax dollars fronted it. (Title 1). Whitman is getting another addition after a recent rebuild - yep with your dollars. Wealthy talks. They pay more in taxes. Wootton has been delayed for a decade due to politics frankly - the ‘dirty’ middle doesn’t have enough power. Most of the marketing is about Blair because it’s in the power center of the county - TP/Ss. The Wootton cluster works on paper but has little or no soul. It should be called the Cram School cluster - probably has one of the highest per capita cram school clusters in the region. Seriously ponder moving - the housing prices are high and there are MUCH greener pastures. No the kids mostly go to UMCP unless they have family hook.

My DC is at RM. DC said that there was a kid from Wootton at one of their football games; friend of a friend. The Wootton kid went inside RM building and was awed by Main St (the main corridor); said that Wootton entry way is falling apart. I have to say, Main St is pretty impressive.

The best bang for your buck is to buy in the Seneca Valley HS cluster. It is the newest and best HS building in MCPS and the biggest in the state. Tons of programs for both college-bound kids or for those who choose an apprenticeship. It is not a school that is sought after like Wootton or the other W schools but the boundary reassignment from 2019 that MCPS decided on, ultimately reduced its FARMS rating and increased the number of Asian students. Thinks will turn around for that school and a good student there will less likely be a small fish in a big pond and will have a better chance at getting into a top-notch college over a Wotton grad.

Unless I'm breaking DCUM rules, I'm free to post whatever (my opinion) I want.

I think a lot of people may be uncomfortable with the ugly racial stereotyping in your post among other things.

So show your anger and uncomfortableness at the MCPS board of education who made their decision based on this stereotype.

LOL

The whole idea of boundary changes is based on racial stereotypes. Take it up with MCPS and the BOE.

Wootton the actual building is a disgrace. How this wealthy area can have a building this bad is a mystery. The kids eat lunch in the hallways on the floors. Maybe that’s outside now - my kid graduated last year.

Actually I think that the monomaniacal boundary poster and the "come to SVHS now that it's a *good* school!" poster are two different people.
