"Listening" to testimony, while ignoring every concern and not even responding with any sort of substance is not actually meaningful. Just say hey, we hope Magruder doesn't fall down in the next decade, because we're doing nothing. We appreciate your advocacy, with a smile.

While I am well aware that MCPS will push forward and all of our BOE members will continue to ignore Magruder, I do appreciate these testimonies today. I want to point out again that 3 cluster schools are in D1 and our BOE president has not answered a single email from any of us.

@TheUpCountyCit1 Somehow in MoCo we have plenty of money for lawsuits but not enough money for paraeducators, proper mold remediation, and schools whose ceilings don't fall down....

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 “If we’re sued, we’re sued,” said Jawando, who is running for county executive. Does he deserve to be County Executive and control tax dollars with this flippant attitude? It’s not his hard earned money he is spending!!! wtop.com/montgomery-cou…

Fully funding #MCPS means fully funding waste. Years worth of #MCEA pressuring the County Council and County Executive to increase our taxes have led to mold-ridden schools and only 22.% of our students passing the Algebra I MCAP. We need line-item by line-item transparency in the MCPS budget. Perhaps it's time to consider attaching performance metrics to any future budget. #DiazForBOE DiazForBOE.com

It's because he has no plan for the upcounty. He has no real plan for the rest of the county. Sadly running on a "Trump is evil" platform generally works for low info MoCo voters.
TheUpCountyCitizen@TheUpCountyCit1

@EvanMGlass You’re running for county executive right? Why are you talking about national politics when voters want to hear about local issues we’re dealing with in Montgomery County? What’s your plans for Germantown, Damascus, Clarksburg, Damascus, Poolesville and Gaithersburg?

@fullenbernie @MCPS The optics of immediately rectifying concerns of a more affluent school while delaying the less affluent school >10 years and then admitting theres not a plan for the less affluent school even as their systems are redlined and the ceiling has fallen multiple times is the point.

@MsVeesGarden @MCPS Wootton doesn’t want a new school, we want the current building fixed and to keep Wootton where it is. MCPS spends 4th lowest per pupil in this “W” school so no we don’t get preferential treatment.

Equity @MCPS style: let's give the W kids a brand new school. The higher ever FARMS kids can take the throw away school that's not good enough for the W kids. At least the ceiling won't cave in on them yet.
Kim Glassman@ksglassman

Went back to watch more and apparently, Wootton can be a holding school without doing any improvements! The building is fine for a community with a 65% ever FARMS rate, just not Wootton families. That is apparently how MCPS defines equity now. Btw, here's what Wootton *may need:

@ksglassman Also MCPS: In the meantime out of an abundance of caution, we recommend wearing helmets, safety glasses and masks to school to avoid injury from falling debris as the building has been known to randomly fall apart.

MCPS and the BOE: hey Magruder, how ya doing over there? We promise we'll get to you one day. We don't know when. We don't know how. We don't know if the money will ever come. But trust us, it will all work out one day. Why don't you believe us? We got you.

@SoundMoneyG The number of statements and proclamations he made about that while at the same time ignoring the rash of youth violence in MV and Germantown is disqualifying for him to be the CE. He cares more about signs than he does about kids who are victimized by very real physical violence
