Do you work for MCPS? Cause this was a bunch of word salad.

Sounds like Dr. Taylor when he recommended Option H - “I can’t please everyone “…. He doesn’t seem to want to please anyone but his political bosses.

I can't even figure out which political bosses he's pleasing though. Because he has pissed off every level of government in Rockville with his Option H decision: https://montgomeryperspective.com/2026/02/06/rockville-mayor-city-council-members-disappointed-with-superintendent-on-wootton/

Those bosses would be in Gaithersburg, which stands the most to gain from closing Wootton and moving most of its kids to Crown.

Who knows, maybe the City of Rockville will join in the lawsuit or file a friend of the court brief. If that happens, MCPS will tuck tail and run as far away from Option H as it can.

I don't think so.

Gaithersburg was most concerned about Crown being a holding school. They actually wanted Crown to be a brand-new school. Jud Ashman, the mayor of Gaithersburg, is just settling for Wootton moving there since it's better than it being a holding school. He posted this on Facebook:

Correct, and that pits Rockville against MCPS and Gaithersburg. Rockville wants to keep Wootton where it is and use Crown as a holding school. Under Option H, Gaithersburg will get the tax revenue and increased property value around Crown, while Rockville loses them.

This may be bigger than Taylor expected, so the BOE might punt for a couple of years to smooth over any ruffled feathers. The smart move would be to keep Wootton and make Crown very attractive for advanced biotech programs. Each city gets something out of that kind of deal.

But that's their City-of-Rockville-centric perspective. The county council isn't going to look at it through that same lens.

You think the County Council, which sits IN Rockville, is not going to take seriously the fact that Taylor every single branch of that municipal government off?

You do know that Rockville is not Damascus, right? That city actually carries a lot of weight in this county.

The council knows that Rockville has one perspective, and it's valid, but it's not the only perspective.

It's not just the elected officials. The residents of Rockville, who are about to vote in the upcoming 2026 elections, are not going to be pleased and will remember that Wootton was taken away from them.

Karla, Julie, Andrew, Evan and Will think there's no risk to pissing off that many voters?

If so, then they're more foolish than I thought. Or they have some information I'm not privvy to.

How many people are walkers to Wootton? The rest prefer Crown
