[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Recognizing some of these names on the petition to move Wootton:
https://www.change.org/p/move-wootton-high-school

These families are from the Dufief and Stone Mill areas.

MCPS really should have just made it easy and have Crown High School pull from it's immediate area and North Potomac area and then also make it a third county wide magnet type of program.  So have three regions instead of six for the regional programs.

Then they could have moved Wayside to Wootton and maybe Ritchie Park, regardless of what families there want, to help with the portables issue at RM.[/quote]

Both of those were presented as options in the original proposals, but Wootton families complained.  RM was moved to Frost and Wootton in one of the original options and DuFief and Stone Mill were moved to Crown.  But at that time Wootton families said their cluster was special and they wanted all of the cturrent Wootton schools to stay together AND they wanted a new/safe school.  So then Option H came along that gave Wootton families a brand new school AND kept the cluster together at the new school, but sudddently Wootton families did n't like that either?  Why didn't they advocate for staying in the same building and switching boundaries with other non-Wootton cluster schools that was proposed in the original options.

It seems like families want everything EXACTLY how they want it but don't like it when they get most of what they want with slight tweaks.  That is not setting a good precedent for your children to be so inflexible and regimented.[/quote]
