Quince Orchard is coming out pretty good with these proposals with having Brown Station and Fields Road assigned to other schools.

Their FARMS rate goes from 31.2% to 22.9% based on the effects table of the superintendent's recommended proposal.

Whereas nearby Northwest goes from 29.7% to 37.1%, part of it is probably from adding Brown Station.

I guess it's better then the initial options, where in that first round options 2 and 4 has QO's FARMS rate go to around 13 or 14 percent, while the other surrounding schools had an increased FARMS rate.

Yes Brown Station is already 75% FARMS and the families in that district who choose not to participate in the Spanish immersion program are sent to Fields Road (for now), which means the real Brown Station neighborhood population is likely >75% FARMS. Now that those students will not be sent to Fields Road (given it won't be in the same region), that will have even more of an effect on Northwest's draw.

1. LOL The school board’s entire job is to consider property values. It’s how they get the cash they love to waste. Property taxes are their bread and butter.

2. Can we get sanctions against Taylor for wasting tax dollars on his frivolous EV lawsuit? Make him pay for the other side’s attorney fees out of his personal account?

1. The goal is to provide a quality education to each child in the county. This has the effect of increasing property values ACROSS THE COUNTY that creates revenue. And it certainly isn't their job to care about any particular small neighborhood's property values. Maybe, the aggregate for the whole county, but not one neighborhood. And there is no reason to believe that this change will affect aggregate property values negatively.

2. And here we go again with "two wrongs make a right" logic...

This new plan only gives some schools a quality education.

Taylor’s list of wrongs is much longer than one. He’s got a whole stable of outside lawyers to fight all the parents he is attacking across the County.

You are focused on Wootton parents because of your racism, but Taylor hates parents all across the county and is looking to be sued dozens of times. While you hate one neighborhood, he hates the entire county. Whatever happened to him at BCC really damaged him for life.

The only thing that changes for Wootton is they get a fancy new building down the road. Most families want that.

Wow.

Ok so he can have done a million wrongs, and what some Wootton parents are doing (or may do) with a lawsuit is STILL wrong.

And I don't hate Wootton parents, nor am I racist. There is literally nothing in this exchange about these two issues (property values and your faulty logic) that would support that conclusion.

PP here and I agree. But that doesn't change anything about the current situation. The purpose of the school system is to provide a quality education to as many county students as possible, not to care about a single neighborhood's property values.

Just ignore such trolls. They want to have their cake and eat it too. They’re cozying up to Brenda Díaz and Moms for Liberty but somehow those of us who support mod Option H are the MAGA ones, not them. Can’t make this stuff up.

He's trying to get Wootton parents what they asked for - a new school. And now you don't want it? Do you have any idea how long it would take to get Wootton to a new school without Crown Farm?

This all feels like it is fizzling out, which is good.

Wrong. Taylor is closer to Velasco Alvarado than to a monarch or a reactionary, populist, and wanna-be authoritarian like POTUS.

It's kind of fun to watch the Wootton folks spiral. Their lawyers must be telling them they don't have a case. I'm sure they'll be happy to take their money, though.
