This article doesn't really illuminate things.

The anonymous staff member SPECIFICALLY says the departures aren't due to the Nelson incident:

“I think is telling to the drastic change in staff at Wootton and it wasn’t a direct correlation to what happened with Mr. Nelson,” an anonymous staff member who left said. “There are narratives being written and made about Wootton culture and staff and it got ugly and to the point that people didn’t want to be around it anymore.”

Honestly, it sounds like the mostly White staff are mad at the Wootton Black Student Union, and MCPS Central Office for believing them, for calling out the subtle and overt racism they experienced at Wootton that went unchecked and unanswered for so long. And once those accusations went public, those staff members are now in their feelings and claiming that they're not "being supported" because that conversation went public.

If that's the case, good riddance to bad rubbish then.

Many staff members left Wootton (almost 50). Maybe they did not like the direction the new administration was taking. New staff members were hired who like the new direction.

The current administration is working very hard to support the new staff. The new staff are working hard to help all students. The students are doing just as well as before, and maybe even better.

This article illustrates the negative impact that Moran’s Central Office directly has on teachers and students.

Key insights include:

“Nelson was ultimately found not guilty for the charge against him that he did not follow MCPS’ hate bias protocol.”

“As staff members tried to do their work, they wanted to receive support from the new administration, but there were people from MCPS central office who came in, ‘and basically told us that we were the problem, and that didn’t sit well with us”

A sad state of affairs and a lot of tax dollars wasted here.

The problem is that nothing is actually public. There is a lot going on behind the scences that the public is not told.
