ha, you don't know how classes work. you'd easily find a firm to do this pro bono given the size and public nature of the class.

Most teachers don’t even belong to them because they charge around $100/month in dues. They have no real power and are just a vocal minority. The decisions made this year are 100% on the school board and Brabrand himself


Sorry but teachers don't get a pass in this IMO. They have reps and their own leadership. If they thought it was repugnant to be teaching remotely this long and that it hurt their kids' learning (which they themselves are seeing), they should have done more to stand up for the kids. They don't get off this hook on this one - especially now with federal reps holding a ransom note to Congress about that $260B fund that has 0 ties to actually getting back to in-person learning.

I believe there has already been some legal action taken against FCPS for forcing students with IEP’s into all DL when not appropriate for their individual disabilities. Then again, FCPS is always getting into hot water for their treatment of students with disabilities and nothing ever changes, so ....

Clearly not considering there isn’t one in action. But by all means, try it although it’s hard to see how you’d have the time given every parent just swears they’re working full time and fully educating their kids already.

That's why you have attorneys.

That's why there is no general right to a (quality) education: because then all those families who go to schools you don't consider good enough would have the right to sue even during normal times.


Exactly, your rights include the right to a free education. The quality of that education is not indicated. And, technically, FCPS has followed all of the requirements for the state, VDOE and DOE.

You have no standing.

It’s he eA, which is under the VEA, which is under the NEA, which you may have heard of because it’s wealthy, it’s powerful and it wants to represent FCPS teachers in collective bargaining when they are allowed to vote in May. And that is a HUGE issue no one is talking about. With collective bargaining, we’d look like DCPS— we’d need to above. Days nex year, if that.

This is interesting, because their President Kim Adam’s can I stop running her mouth and does not limit herself to facts. I’d bet a lot that if you went through her public statements there’s a libel, slander, defamation type tort sui there. You’d have to dig, but pending litigation of this sort would muzzle her.

It’s like getting Trump on tax fraud. Sometimes you have to go sideways at a problem in law.

Government actors in their official role have a ton of protection. The place FCPS is vulnerable is FAPE. The DOE is investigating them because they have county daycare kids and athletes in buildings, but aren’t providing SN services. That’s a real problem for them. It’s so unascent, we won’t follow IEPs for years, but wrestlers with masks...

SNs parents need to be looking at a class action.

Yeah. Your class is SN kids being denied IEP services while clearly kids can be in the buildings for county programs and to ... wrestle. Once it’s safe to wrestle, it’s safe to give PT and OT.

With this magical extra 700M being diverted to raises and DL being so much cheaper, I’m also wondering if there is a Title 1 issue somewhere.

It’s going to take longer than May to get it all in place.

FEA represents what % of teaching staff? FEA/NEA and FCFT/AFT will compete to represent.

I doubt half of FCPS teachers are in any of these associations.

There should be something done for Fairfax County residents to get some tax dollars refunded due to the lack of education provided by FCPS.


Just give me vouchers, please. I have always been a public school supporter, but the past year has broken something.


The military kids should be allowed to take their impact aide from fcps and use it for private school.

FEA had NEA backing. They have all the money, power and organization. It will be them.

And yes, it will take longer than May to win. But winnning isn’t the point )0(although it would be nice) it would be to put FCPS in a defense posture and having the SB members know that down the road, they will be deposed under oath to determine why SNs were excluded and wrestlers were not. And they will need a better answer than because the unions funded my campaign to avoid a costly and hugely embarrassing judgment.

It adds to pressure point.
