Among 26 FCPS middle schools on the list, only 6 middle schools' ranking improved. All other 20 schools ranking dropped.
Cooper dropped from 13 to 23
Longfellow dropped from 23 to 38
Forest middle dropped from 19 to 44
Franklin middle dropped from 21 to 85.....
Yes, the pandemic caused learning loss. But it impacted all areas. Now the pandemic is almost over. Other school districts are catching up but FCPS middle schools are still struggling?
Fairfax middle schools are run entirely by a board of far-left progressive democrats, and an equally far left Superintendent.
Academics are not their priority. They have repeatedly and blatantly stated: academics are NOT their priority. They continue to state their main priority is:
Equity.
When you ignore academics, and prioritize equity, our middle schools predictably drop several ranks on academic measures.
If you disagree with the Board’s number one focus on equity, then stop voting for democrats running for the school board. If you continue to elect democrats to the Board, rankings will continue to drop in FCPS.
