[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just watched Wootton families act like the gangsters they think my kids are as they bullied the board. Ballsy move that would only be made by highly entitled individuals that think they are untouchable. [/quote]

What exactly did they do to bully the board?  Most of them spoke within their allotted time, one of them might have gone slightly over their time, and one of them may have been a bit overzealous.

But is it any different then when other community members come to speak and have support in the background?  Like the Crown and Fields Road families from a couple of weeks ago and they had everyone wearing the yellow vests and there were some today too.

How is one group different then the other?  Or were they both trying to bully the board?[/quote]

it’s only bullying when Wootton parents do it, for everyone else it’s just standing up and advocating for their kids. [/quote]

This!!![/quote]

Read this parent whose lobbying to not fund other schools repairs for Wootton.  They aren't advocating for their kids as if they were they'd take the new school.  https://www.boarddocs.com/mabe/mcpsmd/Board.nsf/files/DMVQRQ6A7E72/$file/Junhua%20Liu%20Testimony%20102825.pdf[/quote]
Can you quote the part of her letter where you believe she's &quot;lobbying to not fund other schools repairs for Wootton?&quot;[/quote]

I found it in the section where they referenced the per pupil cost for Highland compared to Wootton.

I kind of read it as them just looking at the numbers and not really realizing how it their analysis might be taken.

So maybe a booksmart but not really socially savvy.  Especially given the part where they mention that Cold Spring made it onto the CIP and it's been established in a couple of threads on here that it's really small school that doesn't serve a large population.  So the funds for that school could've benefited more students elsewhere.  Similar with what that person was saying about Highland.[/quote]

No. If you support building a new elementary school for 300 students in a cluster with &lt;75% ES utilization, you are not booksmart.[/quote]
