[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several posters commented that it’s been predetermined, that it was always going to happen regardless etc…

So MCPS is asking for people to do the surveys, to come to the town halls for community meetings and engagement, to put comments in about specific solutions they would like to see-for what? To be performative?

If they have always been and are still 100% with this it honestly would have been better for them to not do the surveys at all/not have all the conversation going on about it and to just basically be like-this is what’s going to happen. Because now if they go through with this they are doing so without the community support AFTER they asked for their input. It creates a distrust and honestly makes it seem like they just wasted everybody’s time and effort when they had no intention of listening or making changes.

A very very small minority in the Wootton community support moving to Crown. The petition (which I know doesn’t matter but i’m just mentioning for a numbers standpoint) has over 4k signatures.

I know there have been a couple comments from Wootton parents saying they support it but again, based on everything we are seeing and hearing in the cluster-it’s overwhelmingly against it.

[b]So I really hope they listen. Because I just don’t think it’s any organization’s best interest to push something through like this after so much opposition. [[/b]/quote]

Keyword - Hope

You all know what happened to Cabin Branch - and your situation is not as bad as that - those folks a million dollars for a new build since it was zoned to Clarksburg. Their opposition meant nothing and now they go to Seneca Valley which is the 2nd worst school upcounty (the first one is Watkins Mill).

There's a thread here about that.
