[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the recommendation is to rebuild Damascus on-site, then does Wootton sit empty or does the Magruder renovation get to happen sooner?[/quote]

Sits empty. Wootton needs to be fixed before it can be a holding school, which isn’t funded yet. [/quote]

I hadn't heard this.  What are the repairs MCPS says need to be made in order for Wootton to be used as a holding school?   [/quote]

Taylor never said this and it can’t sit empty because that would delay the Damascus and Magruder renovations. Taylor has said that he needs a holding school, and he can’t use Woodward for this purpose anymore. So he cooked up Option H to try and scoop up Wootton and transplant its high achieving kids into Crown - a win-win for him, but a lose-lose for Wootton. [/quote]

Not Damascus, as it's slated to be rebuilt with students on site.[/quote]

Not guaranteed. What happens if they have to move some of the kids due to unforeseen repairs?  This happens quite often in commercial and school renovations. Regardless, Magruder needs a holding school and can use Crown - just like Woodward was. That’s the least disruptive move for MCPS. [/quote]

Unforeseen repairs happen quite often, yes. But moving some of the kids due to them? When has MCPS ever done that? Usually the project just takes longer than planned. See SSIMS and Poolesville.[/quote]
