Parents and community leaders packed an MCPS school board hearing to oppose Option H, a proposal that would permanently move Thomas S. Wootton High School from Rockville to the new Crown High School in Gaithersburg.
MCPS Superintendent Thomas Taylor recommended the boundary change after years of deferred maintenance at Wootton High School, sparking strong backlash from families who say the school should be renovated rather than relocated.
This video explains MCPS Option H, why Wootton High School parents are pushing back, what the superintendent actually recommended, and what this could mean for Montgomery County neighborhoods, school boundaries, and local home values.
Nothing has been finalized yet, but the recommendation has intensified debate across Montgomery County Public Schools and raised questions about what comes next.
