[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me, seems more like this is less about they did do and more about what they didn’t do, especially relative to prior practice.[/quote]

Prior BOE members never would have stood for this. You know who I’m talking about, [b]Pat is not the only one[/b], but she really understood how things work and are supposed to work. They were good at this type of pushback and holding MCPS to task.[/quote]

They only stood up like that for communities on the right side of the tracks.  See the aforementioned Woodward HS & Silver Creek MS, each of which could have served so much more equitably, but also Potomac ES and the like.  Wootton to Crown is the first time in recent memory that a well heeled community has had it done [i]to[/i] them instead of done [i]for[/i] them.[/quote]

Stick-it-to them is not an FAA policy.[/quote]

True, but diversity and proximity are, and both are better served (overall, not for those walking distance to Wootton) by this.  Not sure about continuity or stability.  And there's that darn budgetary constraint.

That is to say that "stick-it-to-them" (as in targeting) probably wasn't a factor.  That the decision was done [i]to them[/i] just means without allowing for their reasonable agency in the process, which is what has been (and continues to be) the case for many other areas of the county.[/quote]
