[quote=Anonymous]Overall Results

ELA (literacy): 57% of MCPS students scored proficient — higher than the state average but still meaning nearly half of all students are not reading on grade level.

Math: 35.7% of students met proficiency — an increase from last year but still indicating that nearly two-thirds of MCPS students are not yet meeting math standards.

There’s a multi-billion dollar backlog for repair and renovation — even a proposed $2.7 billion plan over six years would still only cover half of what’s needed.

2035 (10 Years From Now)
If Nothing Changes at Wootton
The building is nearly 65 years old and long past normal life expectancy. Aging systems move from “poor” to “critical failure.” Parts of the school may become unusable:
Classrooms closed
Bathroom wings offline
Auditorium, gym, or labs restricted because of air or electrical hazards
Daily disruptions become normal: canceled rehearsals, relocated AP tests, emergency evacuations, repeated closures of rooms or corridors.
MCPS spends millions on bandaid repairs, which delays true renovation even further.
Wootton becomes an equity embarrassment: top-producing academic school in one of the wealthiest counties—but physically neglected.
Families who can leave leave; the county loses trust.
