[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like this discussion could use some grounding in numbers. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the actual Option H involves:

- 1800 existing Wootton students +
- About 400 additional students 
= 2200 students in the Crown building

Is that correct? [/quote]

Initially, yes. But the long term goal is to fill the school to capacity by moving more kids. But yes they are trying to make it sound totally harmless to make people accept it and then they will do whatever they want.

Except that "long term goal" is pure speculation.[/quote]

And it "initially, yes" isn't even true, as the poster with the direct reference, above, pointed out -- the projection is 1999 total resident students in 2031-32 for option H, not 2200 (which would be capacity).  As noted, that doesn't include those who might attend a regional magnet there from outside the catchment.  It also doesn't account for those from inside the catchment going to one of the other regional magnets.  It is unclear how many from the catchments (for any of the schools, and for which, if not drawing from all) were deducted to meet the assumptions of 600 outside students at Poolesville and 500 at Seneca Valley.[/quote]
