+1 The bar is low and only these two clear it. |
Not really sure why APE is promoting Kathleen. Just look at Chen’s website. They mirror each other. If they do believe their hype, they need to endorse Chen. He’s the “learning loss” candidate! Probably they know Kathleen is going to win, so they’re kissing up to her now. |
Here's APE on Fox News opposing the APS equitable grading policy. https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6337160730112 |

Giving students a 50 when they don’t turn something in is complete nonsense. They’re right to raise alarms on this. |
Why anyone in administration listens to APE is beyond me. They say nice things to our faces and then testify on the Hill, get quoted in WaPo and quietly work with RW think tanks doing the opposite. I feel like in a few years I'm going to be saying "I told you so" as APS gets defunded, not by Republicans but by our neighbors pretending to be Democrats to get footholds in all power strongholds.
Anyone that knows Kathleen should encourage her to get out of their FB group. It will do no good for her campaign. Listen to them, but don't give them any more legitimacy than they already lack. |
+1 And tell her to stop posting pics of her and Miranda. She's still my first choice, but wondering who she listens to if she's in their FB group and she's posting pictures with her. |
Very telling that ASHPA has not endorsed Zuraya. |
Miranda should endorse Kathleen then. |
Maybe Kathleen is the APE plant. Dog help us all. |
Has AEA sorted themselves out as an organization? I know they were a hot mess in 2022, haven't really been following along since. I don't necessarily trust them to represent what most teachers want. |
What right wing initiatives are they supporting? I subscribe to their newsletter, and I support what I’m seeing. I don’t want my kids on devices, and I want the school system to focus on excellence in education instead of whatever fad they are cooking up. Kids can still feel “included” and “partners” in an excellent school system that has high expectations for them. |
Kathleen got her start in sped but then she branched out. She is Vice Chair of the Strategic Plan Committee. |
Kathleen is NOT an APE plant. C'mon. |
Why does APE choose to do this on Fox news though, of all places? And it's in a Fox segment where it's lumped together with explicit mentions of critical race theory, sexual education, and parents rights. This is telling. APE has a political agenda and not one that is in line with most of our values in Arlington. |
