It appears he needs to provide a thorough rebuttal of the allegations or resign. This is simply unacceptable behavior, if true.

Isn’t there anyone on the FCPS school board who is not a criminal or villain ?

How do such poor people of integrity get votes from citizens? Why do we keep voting for these types of people?

We, as in parents, don't. The people who rabidly care about politics and show up to party faux primaries (where the party making whatever statement it feels like matters, not the education of our kids) and then on those off-year local elections do. Your elderly neighbors who remember the FCPS of the early '00s do.

A shockingly low number of people vote in Fairfax County local elections. It's literally a couple thousand people per SB member IIRC and about 12000 for an at-large member. If "we" voted, we could change this.

The problem isn’t too many poor people of integrity on the School Board but too many upper middle class people without it.

You’re under-estimating the number of voters. The number of votes in the last SB election in 2023 per magisterial district ranged from a low of about 25,000 (Mason) to about 42,000 (Hunter Mill). About 853,000 votes were received for the at-large candidates, which works out to about 284,000 voters county-wide (3 votes per voter).

Thanks for the correction. It's still not a ton of people compared to the number of parents in the school system.

How has he not at least been put on leave if absence or whatever the right term would be for a Board member who is potentially conflicted out. Fully acknowledging he may prevail in court but in meantime he is in charge of BUDGET- in any other private or public company they would have said need to pull from duties until suit is over. How has he not been pulled off yet to sit out until suit over and name cleared?

I don’t think anyone has identified an existing mechanism to put him on leave of absence. He could be lobbied behind the scenes to resign, allow his role as budget chair to be reassigned, or recuse himself from all SB business until the allegations are resolved.

But one very possible result is that this lawsuit settles out of court before it goes to trial. In that case there wouldn’t be a finding whether he embezzled from his employer or not. In that case, the lawsuit goes away but people never get comfort that he didn’t engage in wrongdoing. Can’t imagine we’d really want him still on the board in that scenario.

If you don't want him on the board, start the withdrawal petition. This is actually one of the few times I could see a judge finding for the petitioners.

Do you mean a formal recall?

Well, no. That is time intensive AF. He needs those who have his ear to tell him he’s become an albatross for the entire SB.

Is there a way for him to be removed? What a creep.

Perhaps a handful are just utterly incompetent? Also, I think Mcelveen is the most moderate, and I’m not offended by him.

The fact that the entire School Board agreed to release a laissez-faire statement regarding the accusations against McDaniel tells us there is NOT a single member on the board - and that would include McElveen- who is either competent, or intolerant of criminals and villains.

Yes, and the point is if people don't care enough for that...they don't care enough.

Nope. The state legislature made it very difficult to unseat elective officials. Just because they adopted laws to protect themselves doesn’t mean someone alleged to have embezzled from his employer - which is fraud - should be on the budget committee of a school board with a $4B budget.

Amen to that.
