No it will not, but the point is that if H goes through, a similar young attorney shopping for homes, will be looking to Churchill or other.  That young attorney is not going to tell their real estate agent that they specifically want Crown as you did with Wootton.

Your comments about whether MCPS must hold closure hearings are interesting.   If I understand what you are saying, the MCPS can relocate the students to a school with a different name, combine them with students from another cluster, and have no plans for what is going to happen to the existing building and Wootton school name.  That will be TBD.   If you are correct, then MCPS should never "close" a school.  They should just backdoor close it via an option H type option.[/quote]

Of course they should close a school in a lot of different scenarios.  There is nothing inherently wrong with closing a school. IT can make sense from a fiscal, capital planning, enrollment, economic development perspective, ect.  There is no reason to avoid it.  All it does is require process- largely the exact same process that is followed for boundary studies. [/quote]
