[quote=Anonymous]The assumption that Nantucket parents wanted to kick other students out of the Crofton cluster is so off the mark. I’m not a Crofton parent, but I’m really close with one of the Nantucket parents who was heavily involved in the advocacy throughout the redistricting process. She said she believes Crofton Woods and Riverwalk parents should also get the chance to be heard and make their case, and that she wanted to work with them. That’s where “One Crofton” came from. It anything, Nantucket parents were the ones advocating for everyone in Crofton from the very start, then when the newer maps were released in the summer that only impacted Nantucket, suddenly all the Crofton Woods people who liked “One Crofton” were silent and disappeared.

It’s so awful that so many people are deciding to slander parents—about half of whom are Black and brown, accuse them of being racist, classist, or hating Arundel (even though many of these people have older kids they willingly sent to Arundel).

Most people in Crofton love Arundel and are immensely grateful for Arundel educating numerous generations of Crofton kids and leading them to success as adults. There is a lot of wildcat pride in Crofton and that will never go away. This has nothing to do with not liking Arundel.

This could have easily happened to your neighborhood and your kids, and it still can in the future. This fight will benefit all kids in the county and force AACPS to be transparent and use accurate data. [/quote]
