[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the main point needs to be that we DO NOT HAVE THE STUDENTS to justify two schools. We never did!

Crown was a gift so had to be built. IT only makes sense to use it and change the usage of Wootton until the time comes that the enrollment justifies another high school. [/quote]

No, it did not have to be built. I love how everyone thinks they know facts when they don’t. Go look up the deed. It says it can also be used as a public park. If a school truly isn’t needed, why waste millions build it. It could’ve been a great park for community use. [/quote]

Exactly. This is a stupid mistake that MCPS traps itself in. MCPS could have returned this gift back to Gaithersburg city without any cost. [/quote]

No, the City of Gaithersburg wanted a new high school.  Just like they made MCPS pay for an artificial turf field at their new elementary school and then took over the field for their own use.  The City of Gaithersburg wants bling. [/quote]

Wonderful. Give it to Gaithersburg. Leave Rockville and Potomac alone.[/quote]

Bingo. But that might leave Crown under enrolled and MCPS would be embarrassed. Also, MCPS wants an instant academic reputation for Crown to justify spending $400M on a new school and to satisfy the developers who poured billions into developing Crown, so it just transplants kids from a top performing school 3+ miles away. “Mission Accomplished” moment and Taylor looks good after being spanked by the Supreme Court last year.
