[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Truly curious. Why the Dufief hate? We are at another Wootton feeder school and I don’t see why they’re being singled out. The parents there are more down to earth than at the other schools (including ours).

I’m a proponent of Wootton staying on Wootton pkway. I’m an alum and so are my kids. It’s been part of the community for over 50 years. But I’m resigned to the fact the plan will be approved as Taylor proposed and all the drama isn’t going to change the BOE’s mind. All that’s happening now is we are dividing the community and pitting communities against one another.  [/quote]

Agreed. Maybe MCPS will start growing again and they will need Wootton to reopen in its original location. Time will tell.[/quote]

Which is the funniest thing because this either doesn’t happen as some of the other posters alluded to OR it does happen and Wootton reopens without Dufief.

Either way, 👋 Dufief.

Dufief hate explanation: they are hypocritical. If they truly think the Wootton building is unsafe, they should’ve been happen with option D during the initial round. But no, they was pissed as hell and wanted the entire cluster to get behind them so that they can still at Wootton. But when H came out, all of a sudden, its we absolutely need to leave Wootton.

Let’s just be transparent. It was never about safety, but forcing everyone else in the cluster to move with you when literally more than 90% of the entire cluster is against it.

If end up at Crown, I hope Dufief is closed. In fact, I can promise, there will be people pushing for this. You want Wootton closed? Great, do Dufief next.

Karma![/quote]

Dufief mom here: Two things can be true. We wanted BOTH to 1) get out of the moldy building for physical health reasons AND 2) stay with our friends for social/mental health reasons. Just like the Parkway People want BOTH to 1) stay on the Parkway 2) have it spruced up--even minimally--as they have (rightfully) been asking for for the last 15 years.

I think the difference between Dufief and the Parkway People is that we have realized we actually can't have it all and worked to figure out what is most likely and throw our support at that recognizing the limits of our power. [/quote]

Actually no, they can’t be. Safety trumps all. Nothing comes above my children’s safety.

If you genuinely think the building is unsafe, you would’ve been all too happy with option D instead crying about having to go alone.

The fact that Dufief is not ok with D but ok with H proves that it was never about safety. [/quote]

Yup! The underlying motivation is “We don’t want to be the only white and Asian kids at the black and brown school!!” 😭😭😭 Please let our “vewy special fwends” come with us so we won’t be new, alllll alone. 😱😱[/quote]

😂 when Dufief kept going keep us with Stone Mill and Travilah, meanwhile literally countless Stone Mill and Travilah parents saying we don’t claim you and keep our names out of your mouth.

Travilah’d own survey shows over 80% oppose H. Similarly, an overwhelming majority of Stone Mill also oppose H. Then when you go to the rest of the cluster, it becomes nearly 100% opposed.

This is why we hate you Dufief. You sold out the rest of the cluster. [/quote]

Don’t care what you think of Dufief. Good thing hundreds of SM and Travilah also support us. It’s on record and the board has it. [/quote]

Cool. And thousands more signed the petition against H. I’m willing to bet more SM and Travilah families signed that petition than your letter. MCPS don’t give a rats ass on letters or petitions. They only care about things that support their outcome.

So when they close and redistrict Dufief, feel free to collect hundreds more signatures and see how that works out for you!

Taylor doesn't care about surveys or petitions. Taylor relies on his own personal data.[/quote]
