The school wants to support and protect the kids. It remains open as normal for all students and all approved MCPS activities.

However, it is closed to outside groups coming in to try to rein in/eliminate the hateful attacks. No reasonable person would be against such an action. The school is a school, first. If offering access to the property to the broader (basically anonymous) community at large is putting students at risk, the right thing to do is to limit community access.

There's no evidence that the perpetrators were community members and not students.
The school grounds are only open to the public before and after school hours. How is that putting students at risk?

Someone could place an IED or Bobby trap or something else harmful that could go off during school hours.

Why is this yet another security problem for schools to have to deal with?

If you have no business with the school, you shouldn’t be on school property.

Leave it to people in MoCo to be so entitled they think being able to walk on a track is more important than school safety.

Are there any indications of actual safety issues from the vandalism?

A crazy person hanging a hateful flier may become triggered and hurt someone. The facilities are closed to the community not to students participating in MCPS activities. Do you think the school should continue allowing the public to come in and vandalize Northwood?

I am a Northwood parent . I’m concerned about the attention the school is getting from hate groups. Sooner or later, some anti-Semitic right wing nut job won’t be satisfied with flyers and may decide to escalate to physical attacks.

You need to grow up and realize that your assumptions about who is responsible are based on your own biases. There are many, many anti-Semites who do not fit your description. But at least now we know who wrote all of the "RWNJ" posts.
