What other lies and truth twisting is coming from you while information is hidden at gatehouse?

It's not just Reid. The seven School Board members who rushed to pledge their allegiance to Reid at the same time as the Hayfield situation was only getting more chaotic all need to resign. They cannot be trusted with school boundaries or anything else.

The Compromised Seven are:

Sandy Anderson
Seema Dixit
Karl Frisch
Robyn Lady
Kyle McDaniel
Marcia St. John-Cunning
Rachna Sizemore-Heizer

RESIGN!!!

"The Sordid Seven"

Even better.

People are too obsessed with test scores. Don’t worry about the average or median score. It is meaningless if you have for example a center that pulls students from other schools or a large number of low SES or ESL students. Truly, the average and median scores tell you nothing about how good the school is.

Good luck changing that. Start with the new VDOE accreditation system, the. The FCPS school board ,and hit Redfin, Zillow and great schools next.

They push that narrative for marketing but doesn’t mean it is a good metric o evaluate a school. When you see an ad or commercial for a floor cleaner, and you see people ecstatic about cleaning just because they use that product and that it solves all their problems, do you believe you’ll be dancing through life if you use it?

Forgot to add old/new, the VDOE isn’t measuring the right things.

My friend, we agree test scores are a bad measure of a school or even how educated and ready for adulthood and citizenship a child/teen may be.

We disagree that anything or anyone is going to change that anytime soon.

I didn’t say anyone would change the metric, but a good analyst understands that those measures are not what should be used.

For example, average SAT score at Langley HS with very little poverty or at-risk students (less than 5%) is 1314 in 2022
(92nd-93rd percentile), while at Herndon HS with a high number of at-risk (FARMS) students (55%) is 1187 (80th percentile) still well above the average. Can you honestly say Langley is doing a great job based on these scores given its demographics? And can you say with a straight face that Herndon is a FAILING school (per some on DCUM) with that average score particularly with the number of at-risk students with presumably dragging down the average?

One could argue that Langley HS is underachieving and Herndon HS is overachieving.

Lewis HS — which has a similar number of at risk kids as Herndon HS (55%) AND uses IB — has an average SAT of 1063 (60th percentile). A lower average score but still NOT FAILING. This could likely be due to the use of IB versus AP.

South Lakes HS, which also has IB but fewer at risk students (35 percent) than Herndon or Lewis, has an average SAT score of 1205 similar to Herndon. However, one could argue it is also underperforming given it has IB like Lewis and fewer at risk kids than either Herndon or Lewis.

About 18% of West Springfield’s students are at risk. Its average SAT score is 1195 (81st percentile) which is very close to Herndon and South Lakes average scores. WSHS is underperforming compared to its neighbor Lewis HS given the IB and higher poverty. Seems WSHS parents would get a better bang for their buck at Herndon HS.



This was all back of the napkin using data from:

https://www.fcps.edu/news/fairfax-county-sat-scores-continue-surpass-state-and-global-averages

https://schoolprofiles.fcps.edu/schlprfl/f?p=108%3A8

Great, now let’s hear about the student safety and incident data from Langley vs. Lewis. VDOE hides it now because they don’t want parents to know what is really going on at some of these schools.

Why don't you share where you get your student safety and incident data to support your insinuations about Lewis. Langley has an instructional assistant doing inappropriate things in the classroom. That sounds pretty unsafe for teenage girls. And that was just the one they caught.

All of FCPS must be dangerous then, because Reid had security on hand just to meet with a few coaches. Scary!!!! I’m laughing pretty hard at those who think any school in Fairfax County is scary. They must live pretty insulated lives.

I think another poster nailed it when they said these parents wrap up their identity in where their kids go to school. Its an endorphin release they wouldn't get by saying HHS.

Do you even hear yourself talk? I can’t fathom hating neighbors as much as you do.

Says the poster desperately trying to avoid their kids going to school with the poors. Ha!

Not me, as soon as I caught wind of the potential changes we made alternate plans. But I don’t malign you or your kids.

I feel sorry for anyone from great falls who has to interact with you in the future.

Homeschooling = kids don't get to spend as much time with their peers

Private school = kids have to make a new group of friends

Different public school/same pyramid in FCPS = kids have to make a new group of friends unless already in MS/HS.

Different jurisdiction = kids have to make a new group of friends

Plus at some point your kids figure out that you did this to avoid sending them to school with Hispanic kids.

You all really like to social engineer others people’s lives. Don’t worry, we’re living our best lives and sleep well at night.

I don't care what you do. Just pointing out your boast isn't the life hack you seem to think it is.

There are 117 pages of posts on this topic that show that you and the other poster very much do care where my kids go to school.

I’m sorry to disappoint you in that regard.

Just because people spar with you when you wear your bigotry on your sleeve so openly doesn't mean they care where your kids go to school.

DP. I beg to differ. It's abundantly clear from reading this thread that there are indeed posters who are completely obsessed with and invested in where other people's kids go to school.

Not at all.

Dunne has shown candor and transparency, and other districts rely on him for information about boundary reviews. McElveen just dodged a bullet by not signing on. The remainder are the Sordid Seven.

Dunne sent an email today with a joint statement from himself, Anderson, and McElveen outlining their “95 Theses” on how FCPS “failed to protect their student athletes and maintain the integrity of its athletic program.”

I can’t believe that a HS football recruiting scandal in Northern Virginia, of all the possible things, could be the thing that brings down a superintendent.

Hoping it brings down the whole school board. This residency fraud is the likely culprit for a lot of what’s wrong with fcps

Yep, look at how many MD cars are in some of the kiss and ride lines … but I suppose they’re all homeless

She may stick around. But large numbers of parents now see her as fundamentally incompetent and view the School Board members who doubled down on their support for her to be seriously lacking in good judgment.

Of course, some of these SB members, such as Frisch, had already revealed themselves to be useless buffoons. His position on the Hayfield debacle just provides further evidence. They certainly can’t be trusted to deal with school boundaries appropriately.

I like how Dunne emphasizes an outside law firm doing an investigation. The last two bullets for investigation scope make me hopeful this is the beginning of the end for Reid and some of the SB members (as well as some Hayfield leaders):

- The conduct of the internal investigation from June to August 2024; and
- The handling of this matter by FCPS leadership since February 2024.

[Anonymous]

Reid is fond of telling people “together, all things are possible.”

We simply failed to realize that those things included a football scandal under her watch that has no precedent in FCPS history.

Now sit back as she makes an even bigger hash of school boundaries.

No surprise to see Sandy Anderson on this list. Her stench is all over this one.

The football scandal shines a light on a version parent entitlement in NoVA. This one, however, has the approval of Reid and much of the SB.

Let's take a look outside of the Sordid Seven: Ricardy, Maren, and Moon took a stand about grandfathering, they at least care a little bit about FCPS students and families. Dunne has shown candor and transparency, and other districts rely on him for information about boundary reviews. McElveen just dodged a bullet by not signing on. The remainder are the Sordid Seven.

Dunne sent an email today with a joint statement from himself, Anderson, and McElveen outlining their “95 Theses” on how FCPS “failed to protect their student athletes and maintain the integrity of its athletic program.”

I can’t believe that a HS football recruiting scandal in Northern Virginia, of all the possible things, could be the thing that brings down a superintendent.

Hoping it brings down the whole school board. This residency fraud is the likely culprit for a lot of what’s wrong with fcps

Imagine if this triggered a residency fraud investigation across the school system were to take place. Weirdly, I’ve been at our ES office (while working as a volunteer), when tardy students unwittingly outed the fact they lived in Maryland or DC. They did they by explaining the traffic was bad coming from there. These were usually 4th-6th graders. It was really uncomfortable.

We recently had a HS acquaintance who played sports move out of county, who stayed at our FCPS school until recently. The principal gave the go-ahead but when FCPS gatehouse found out a couple months later, they told the family to pay tuition or get out. I’ve wondered if the Hayfield scandal influenced the decision change. I was also appalled the principal hadn’t made sure they paid the tuition before letting this kid start school.

They should absolutely do a countywide residency check. This should be an annual occurrence IMO.

This could potentially solve everything that FCPS intends to "comprehensively review." Residency auditing and records maintenance solves fraud for athletes moving around and out of county students or out of pyramid students attending a given school.

Reid, I would rather you gaslight me by revealing the text messages and telling me you don't believe in any wrongdoing by Hayfield.

What other lies and truth twisting is coming from you while information is hidden at gatehouse?

It's not just Reid. The seven School Board members who rushed to pledge their allegiance to Reid at the same time as the Hayfield situation was only getting more chaotic all need to resign. They cannot be trusted with school boundaries or anything else.

The Compromised Seven are:

Sandy Anderson
Seema Dixit
Karl Frisch
Robyn Lady
Kyle McDaniel
Marcia St. John-Cunning
Rachna Sizemore-Heizer

RESIGN!!!

I wholeheartedly agree. At the Glasgow Middle meeting last week, I was talking to a parole officer who says residency fraud is happening for gang related purposes too. I’m sure it’s happening for academics and for many other reasons as well.

They must ensure that these kids are going to the right school. I think the boundary issues largely go away at that point.

There are a lot of parents who are terrified of sending their kids to Glasgow because of the behavior of some of the kids there.

Ricardy Anderson will claim it is because Glasgow is “overcrowded,” but the school was built to accommodate lots of kids. The issue isn’t really overcrowding, but the student population. We need residency checks and tighter discipline to expel kids who aren’t there to learn and may not even be attending FCPS legally. Claiming they need a boundary adjustment to address overcrowding just covers up the real issue.
