[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some other things we learned:
You can only advocate for your kids and school if you are at a low performing school, if you are in Wootton it’s not advocating-it’s whining.

If you ask for things to be fixed and are then in turn, presented with the most insane option-you are ridiculed for not accepting the wonderful gift you were so lucky to be offered.

Even though everything will change with option H-it actually all will be exactly the same apparently. [/quote]

You aren't advocating for your kids.  You are advocating for your building.  And, you are so entitled you demand everything else be dropped so your small in comparison to other schools can be top of the list with repairs, that reality is all schools need.[/quote]

As it’s been stated numerous times on this thread-Wootton’s score for its poor condition is the second worst in the county. The problems are not small. And every school that is in poor shape should be advocating, loudly for improvements. Imagine telling your kids to remain quiet when conditions are poor because they shouldn’t speak up because there is always someone who has it worse. [/quote]

Actually, if you look at the data, they are still working on assessing all the schools so until all the schools are assessed, its impossible to say who has the worse facilities.[/quote]

Perfect, so then we also can’t say there are many schools in worse condition can we? Because we simply don’t know. So saying either would be wrong. [/quote]

I think we know there are other schools in equally or worse shape.  Other HS's have regular flooding, ceilings falling down and more.[/quote]

You are missing the point-All of us should be advocating. It shouldn’t be a contest-All the schools need to be pressuring MCPS to be spending the money on fixing schools rather than boundary studies and other things that don’t have a direct positive effect on the students. Fixing the schools absolutely would. [/quote]

All of us don't need to be advocating for Wootton as we don't have kids there and we understand the financial mismanagement and its not going to happen.  Schools are overcrowded.  Maybe not Wootton but most other schools.  They need to rezone to make them more reasonably sized.[/quote]
