Save Wootton, a stakeholder coalition formed to prevent the closure of Wootton High School, has announced that it has filed complaints with state and county inspectors general as well as the Maryland State Department of Education claiming irregularities in MCPS’s process to determine the fate of the school. The group has also announced a legal defense fund “managed by the newly-formed non-profit, the Community and Education Policy Alliance (CEPA,) with plans to sue over multiple aspects of the mismanaged decision-making process.”

I'm not confident they'll be successful, but this goes to show why MCPS has historically avoided ruffling feathers at the W schools: Things escalate real quick and there's a large cohort of well-resourced and organized parents who will make life difficult for MCPS if they piss them off.

We’ve been telling you we’re going to sue. The BOE was sent notice. Can’t say we didn’t warn ya!

We've been telling you, the board is ready for this so why not buy something you can actually enjoy with your money?

I wonder how that fundraising to sue is going. I want to see a thermometer on their website so we can see the progress of the contributions.

It’s going great! Thanks for your concern. If you want to donate: https://cepamd.org/

I enjoy making elected officials and government agencies accountable. Means more to me than a Chanel handbag. Plus, I already have a Chanel handbag.

This is so silly. Exactly what action was taken between the “warning” and now?

I don’t think you understand how things work.

That lawsuit really is something. Reminiscent of Clarksburg and Chestnut Ridge but have fun burning that cash! That $100k you’re asking your community to throw away is a drop in the bucket versus what you’ll actually need.

Can you share more about the grounds on which this group will be suing? I would definitely want to make sure it’s something with a viable pathway to success before contributing.

I don’t think speaking on an anonymous forum is the best way to share legal strategy. But I don’t think any of us would spend our time and money on this if there wasn’t a viable pathway.

The basis of a claim is not "legal strategy." It is something that needs to be clearly disclosed in the initial filing. Not a super secret thing.

Many people have admitted that they don't actually care about a viable pathway or legitimate basis. This is a manipulation of the legal system by filing a frivolous suit in hopes that it prevents an entirely legal action that they just don't like.

Cool story. Then wait for the initial filing.

Here’s what you need to know. Superintendent Taylor has lost before the Maryland Appellate Court, the Maryland State Board of Education at least 3 times, and he has repeatedly been cited in audits as having failed to safeguard MCPS finances. He’s a loser.

Those filing the suit don't actually care if it's a winner. They are using it as a delay tactic. The want to delay the vote long enough to have a new board who will vote down H. It's a complete waste of taxpayer dollars but they don't care. The majority of these people don't have kids impacted by the move. They care about property values and that's it.

When did you first realize you had super powers to know what anonymous people care about?
Use those super powers to learn about litigation because so far, you are clueless.
