Fair enough.

There are many who feel H should Not be pursued and that one of the top schools in the county should Not disappear.  Meaning it will no longer exist whether it is officially "closed" or not.

So MCPS may or may not not need to call this a closure under the vague definition, of such.  Perhaps there should be a new category called "Disappearing a School"? This would allow MCPS avoid any "Closure" discussions and they could just make a school "Disappear"

PP here.  I think the conversation that is happening now at the hearings and the community opposition is exactly as you describe.  The debate about Option H is happening now.  I take no issue with opponents saying that the school as they know it will disappear.  That is 100% true.  It is also separate from the legal "closure" argument.[/quote]

Are they "disappearing" Burtonsville ES because some kids won't be able to walk to it anymore? There are probably some people that were fond of living across the street from the school, just like the poster here who thinks he's going to lose $400k in equity (without any reasonable basis, of course).[/quote]
