[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why was mcps scared to piss off Churchill in the original options but it doesnt care about pissing off wootton and magruder in option h? If theres no valid reason for wootton to sue, then there wouldn't have been grounds for Wayside to sue either right? Option h seems to anger a lot more people than just Wayside from a future votes for boe or county counsil perspective.[/quote]

Because MCPS believed Churchill would actually sue. The real money has always been at Churchill and Whitman. [/quote]

I don’t think it’s really about Wayside threatening litigation - I don’t support it, but I am pretty sure Wootton is going to sue. It’s sort of unfathomable to me how people are still failing to understand the main motivations here. Even if you don’t personally agree with them, it’s abundantly clear that the financial concerns for MCPS are real - they simply don’t have money to renovate all the schools that desperately need it. The enrollment concerns are real - current MCPS enrollment in these area elementary schools is about 75% of what it is in corresponding high schools. You can disagree with either of those things, but you can’t, in good conscience disagree that MCPS and the BOE clearly believe these concerns to be their reality. This is why so many people who are anti-h are having to descend into conspiracy theory land to justify their stance. Anything political, whether it’s threats of litigation or the strength of different communities’ representation on the board, is just background noise that supports the reality that all the decision makers are living in.

If they were going to sue, they'd do it by now.  There are probably tons of lawyers at that school and they collected a legal fund, someone pocketed.[/quote]
