Wootton parent here. We haven’t heard a peep. I asked DC today and they said they haven’t heard either but they really like the acting principal.

There’s been a series of anti-Black incidents at Wootton that the principal, Doug Nelson, has not reported and failed to act on. There is an anti-Black culture that has been allowed to fester his leadership.

That’s how they’re connected.

Having long term subbed under Doug Nelson back when he was assistant principal at Silver Spring International, and then again when he was an assistant principal at BCC, I'm "shocked truly shocked" that he did nothing about poor behavior. Joking - I found him an unimpressive administrator each and every time. Although I do feel sorry for him, after all he spent a career being told by MCPS that administrators won't ever get held accountable, so how was he to know that one day he would be held accountable for incompetency?
