[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a conspiracy theory. I think there is WAY too much credit being given to the long game that MCPS has supposedly be playing to close Wootton. [/quote]

Not really. Folks on this thread (and previous ones) claimed that Crown was built 100% in good faith to ease overcrowding at QO, GHS, etc. Now they’re claiming that MCPS was absolutely right to build Crown to avoid losing valuable land, regardless of whether there are enough kids to fill it.

Not much of a logical leap to think MCPS always considered closing Wootton, moving its boundaries, then transplanting its kids if the 2019 enrollment projections proved to be wrong, which of course they were. No one with any credibility in business was using pre-COVID projections in 2024 (5-year old projections are incredibly out of date). Thus, no one would spend $400M building an unnecessary facility unless there was an ulterior motive.  This is supported by the fact that Wootton kept getting pulled off the CIP, allowing its facility to degrade to the point that closing Wootton was a fait accompli. [/quote]
