[quote=Anonymous][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]

Its a win for the high-achieving students to have brand new facilities... especially for stem.[/quote]

If that’s the case, why are the vast majority of Wootton parents opposed to Option H?  Seems line you want something (in a different building miles away) for Wootton that it didn’t ask for.  Taylor may agree with you, but Wootton families don’t. [/quote]

No community facing disruption through this process would have been happy, but there are basically no rational reasons to oppose this for the rest of us, and we outnumber you.[/quote]

Well, you got the “no rational reasons” part right, but that applies to Option H. What you’re saying is that you don’t care what the people most affected think because “we outnumber you” (ie mob mentality and “might makes right”).[/quote]
