Then why isn’t RM changing any all? They’re overcrowded and also part of reason to build crown. Wootton is never over capacity but has to change because of DEI goals

QO, GHS and Wootton are also overcrowded and closer to Crown - its just logical that Crown should be filled with communities zoned to these schools.

I agree. I see signs everywhere now. People are crazy if they honestly think it’s just a couple people who oppose this. I don’t think there is anyway they can go with this option at this point.

If that is the case, wootton families should stop worrying and talking further about option H on the forum because it won't happen as you say. Just let MCPS & other non-Wootton families worry about solutions to current issues of underenrollment, limited budget, CIP list and new Crown building.

As it has been discussed numerous times-The plan is for them to get crown to capacity by adding ~1000 GHS students. Is it written on option H? No, but it’s been brought up at multiple meetings.

Also, obviously you are thrilled at this prospect so of course you are for it-it 100% benefits you.

Yep. They love the idea of Wootton moving to Crown because it puts the #3 high school in MD right in their backyard. They didn’t have to buy a more expensive house and their kid will benefit by having lots of high achieving kids around him /her (as compared to today). What’s not to like?

And what’s wrong with that if the PP did want that for their child? Before you jump down my throat, I have no skin in this game, my kids will go to DHS one day down the line but I’ve been watching this topic closely because I want to see what happens with the holding school issue.

Back to the original point- as an outsider watching from the very beginning it seems the Wootton community began all of this controversy by arguing their school should jump the line of renovations and promoting this narrative that the building is in such a state of such shambles it should be moved immediately and is in such poor condition it can’t be used safely. Now we have option H thanks to that.

And the Crown community seems happy with the compromise of integrating their community with Wootton to solve 2 problems with one high school. That’s just how it seems to someone like me who is not too deeply invested either way.

I share similar observation as an outsider. I believe soon after option H was released, Wootton communities suddenly turned the table and claimed that their school is "safe" enough to wait till full renovation at 2035 or later. Crown community seemed to be okay as long as the Wootton at Crown HS include their kids to join them. Now the biggest issues are some Wootton call some Crown Communities kids out as ghetto and gangster and would drag down their Wootton prestige state or national ranking and their prescious snowflakes kids to the drainage with no more bright foreseeable future.

You sound bitter.

And Wootton parents weren't demanding a full renovation right now. They're asking for remediation of current issues. Learn the difference. Then again, you probably know the difference but ignored it to spin a tale that paints Wootton parents in the worst possible light. Clearly you have an axe to grind against Wootton (and people whose kids attend "W" schools).

Of course the Crown community is fine with Wootton moving and their kids also attend Crown. Wootton's loss is their gain.

P.S. It's spelled "precious". If you're going to insult people, at least spell your insults correctly.

They can rename crown Wootton or come up with another w name.

Different parents asked for different things but there is no money and other schools much worse off that need priority. Giving them crown is the best option.

RM is more than twice the distance from Crown.

That’s not true. Fallsgrove is within walking distance of crown.

100% Fallsgrove should absolutely go to Crown. Gaithersburg is actually closer to them than RM too.

But yeah-maybe you are right that it will be fine-these kids sound sweet:
https://www.wusa9.com/video/news/local/15-year-old-brings-loaded-ghost-gun-to-gaithersburg-high-school/65-9b47f03f-10e3-4d42-bca8-7f7a6bf41eb3

So now we stereotype all kids at Gaithersburg to be like this one? So then I guess we can stereotype all kids at Wootton to be like the one who had an actual plot to carry out a mass shooting last year?

In that case, seems like the Gaithersburg kids are logically the safer group.

Having a plot and actually taking a loaded gun to school are two very things. but you know that. But there are plenty more incidents if you want to google them.

So you would rather your kid go to school with kids who intend to indiscriminately kill many students than kids who intend to kill a specific student? Weird.
