[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well there you have it... Dr. T was asked pointedly about the FAKE "Rockville Recommendation" (aka Option G) during the Jawando Education Budget Forum tonight and if he was reconsidering it for his recommendation and he said "absolutely not". It's giving... I appreciate the offer but I'm just not interested.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA[/quote]

Taylor is never going to pursue Option G. The only chance it has is if the board itself takes the side of those who are arguing for it.

One of the big hurdles with Rockville’s argument is that it suggests Crown be filled/opened as a full school upon inauguration of a new Wootton building on Wootton parkway. If done that way, it would leave the county with no holding school for subsequent high schools which need renovation after Magruder/Wootton. So the superintendent won’t be too thrilled about that.

Wrong. The hurdle is money. Lack of.[/quote]

Two things happened contributing to Wootton closure:
1. Building crown with the money to renovate Wootton.
2. Regional programs which take away the operational cost for crown as 27th high school.

Wootton is the one being hurt here. But the resentment toward W schools is making people lose perspective and react irrationally.[/quote]

The only people who think Wootton is going to stop being a “W” school because its FARMS are increasing from 14% to 19% is you and a handful of communities directly around the old Wootton building who, to take your phrase, can’t seem to think rationally. Enjoy your new building and continued high achieving school community. That’s what most of the rest of us in the county have to say.

Adding Fields Road, by the way, can’t even compare with adding in Wheaton Woods (84% FARMS), which is what has the Woodward people up in arms. But even they aren’t portraying it as “resentment toward W schools” (And before you say they aren’t a “W” school their search is for “parity” with WJ, which is considered a W school). [/quote]
