Not necessarily they.  But someone.

And as already established there are many factions within the Wootton community.  Some who want a new school and would be happy with the Crown location, some who invested to be in close proximity to the current school location, some who may be more towards upper class, some who may be typical for the DC Metro area standards, etc.

In all honesty it would be helpful if the people supporting each one would just come out and support it.  Not trying to threaten or dox anyone.  But it gives a better idea on the numbers and support behind each group.  So far I've only seen Wootton residents oppose Option H, both in communication within the community, signs and at board meetings.

If no Wootton resident is willing to stand up or speak at a board meeting, saying that Wootton should definitely go to Crown, then they know they're in the minority and would have the crowds against them.

If by they, you mean the Gaithersburg community, who Crown was originally intended for.  Of course they would be angry if a school that was promised to them started construction then they stopped it to divert funds to Wootton.

This seems to be a case of MCPS doing something that most people in the respective communities didn't want.  In asking for Wootton to renovate, MOST Wootton residents never asked for their current school location to change.  And most Gaithersburg residents want to go to the new school that is being built down the street from them.[/quote]
