I don't see any issue with FARMS going from 14 to 19%. As long as it's around 20, it won't be having any negative effect on school.


It will have a huge affect

More importantly I don’t want my kids driving to Crown period.

Good job MCPS closing one of your top performing schools fabulous idea

Time to move on.

I understand that there will never be an option that pleases everyone, but it is interesting that they chose option H when all of the testimonies have been so against it.

For those that didn't attend the meeting, Taylor recommended a modified option H where Wootton is closed and Crown High School is opened with the students from Wootton + Fields Roads + some of Rosemont - Cold Spring which they are moving to Churchill. There was a secondary recommendation for how to shift boundaries if the board rejects closing Wootton and wants to operate both Crown and Wootton.

Starting a new thread for reaction to today's Crown High School boundary study recommendation from Taylor.
