Thank you, but so far I am not feeling deprived at the elementary level. One step at a time. |
I acknowledge what she is trying to do - take my time, money and resources using my kid’s education as the means instead of investing her own time and resources in the school. Geez, I wonder why parents push back against redistricting so much? |
So you want the school board to move the parents that people can benefit from them. That’s so much better. :eye roll: |
+1 The person who constantly natters away about redistricting is beyond transparent. |
- 1. You don’t have to agree with them, but no need to be so unpleasant about it. |
DP. That’s rich, given the typical post from the SJWs. |
What is the “typical post” from the “SJWs”? |
When they constantly repeat the same song and dance - not just here but on other threads - they’re simply trolling. Are you new here? |
Exactly. |
No, but “same song and dance” is just another way of saying “typical post.” Why so vague? |
The only way to guarantee redistricting wont happen is to incorporate pyramid areas into cities with either their own school system (eg, Falls Church City) or cut a deal the FCPS to operate its schools (eg, Fairfax City). Unless and until that happens redistricting is always a possibility. |
Commonwealth does not allow that; the law is set to expire, but it always gets renewed. |
The moratorium has already been renewed well into the 2030s. Any school in FCPS could be redistricted even if the Fairfax City kids stay at the schools owned by that city. |
Maybe? The ideal house cost to income is 3:1, which was true for the boomers. Today the ration is 5.5:1 meaning most people cannot afford homes. |
"I can't afford the house I'd like in your neighborhood, so your kids should be bussed to my neighborhood school so my kids can attend yours." Not a pitch that stands to resonate with the new School Board, much less parents. This is played out for now. Best to park it until they actually adopt a new policy or make a specific proposal. |
