Sad.

What do you mean? That seems pretty transparent, not trying to hide the who or what

lol. I feel like I’m arguing with a Trump supporter!

Oh wait.

I’m not a Trump supporter but she was clear about who she was, what group she’s working for and how she was asking for help. How is that being caught red-handed?

Put your vote where your mouth is and vote against Tim Kaine then. /s. Tim Kaine co-sponsored the Focus on Learning Act with J.D. Vance (with Tom Cotton and Mark Kelly) on a cellphone study because they understand how bad cellphones are for kids. It specifically has a provision to provide grants for schools to purchase away for the day tools. This is a nonpartisan issue.

Or start your own advocacy group. People love to freak out about APE and how they have “infiltrated the advisory boards” and are “cozy with the school board” but there’s no reason they can’t be. If APE is so crazy and incompetent it should be easy!

I know if the SEPTA people who are the ones who are against the bell to bell policy had gone to an LCPS or FCPS forum to solicit comments from that community, APE would be the first group to call them out.

Sit down. You’re weird if you can’t see how wrong she was.

I’ll wait. ⏱️

Cell phone use at school affects every kid negatively at school for any number of reasons. Why do people bring in outside groups for other things that affect only a small fraction of some schools or districts such as lgbtq, partisan book censorship, pro-life, etc? I feel that you're not against other social issues that don't actually have an effect on the day-to-day life of k-12 children being litigated in public schools.

OP again. It's not the cellphones in classrooms people or even the current or future policy, even though some people want to conflate the issues.

It's the fact that an APE representative went to another community forum to solicit comment to influence APS' policy. And if anyone from Alexandria weighed in, shame on them.

Absolutely. And SEPTA I don't think are even against the current policy. They are just thinking how a ban bell-to-bell will affect children with IEPs. But APE just talks right over them because moral panic.

What? They were asking how other neighboring school districts handle things. Is that really so nefarious? They even identified themselves as a member of APE.

I'm sure plenty of Arlington parents have opinions about AAP. Not sure that strange.

Had she shared with the SB that she shared a poll for Arlington parents with people outside of Arlington?

Oh wait. She doesn’t know how to sign up for SB meetings.

No, she asked them to fill out the poll.

Gaslighting.

I don’t respond to FCPS polls.

Since I have to spell it out with crayons:

She. solicited. Alexandria. parents. to. officially. provide. feedback. on. APS'. policy. while. it. was. open. for. public. comment. to. advance. APE's. policy. goals. Not. necessarily. the. community's. wishes.

It's unethical and slimy for outsiders to weigh in. I don't go to FCPS or LCPS' open policy comment section to weigh in on things that absolutely have no bearing on me or my children.

School board members and the system want to hear from their community only.

I can't help you if you don't see how wrong this is.

Grants…for schools to decide themselves to try it?

A study…to look at impacts.

Very different than Republicans forcing their opinion on everyone else without their consent.

They have a deep misunderstanding of consent.

It's clear from the comments by both senate and house sponsors that they have already made up their mind on the issue. This is not a study to see what should be done. This is the typical confirmation bias congressional "study" because they've already read and been informed of existing studies. There are already remedies included in the bill. Why this is still being litigated by parents with cell phone addicted kids is just so....

Since APE is so proud of themselves, they should email each school board member personally, letting them know that they wanted ACPS parents to weigh in on our cellphone policy in development.

It will go very well.
