| They're still debating. Channel 21. |
| Wakefield Forest moves to Woodson -- the motion to keep the eastern portion at Annandale HS failed on a tie vote. |
| FINALLY!!!!!!!! YEEAAAHHHHH!!!! |
|
The three amendments dealing with the Pine Spring attendance island, Columbia Pines, and keeping the small neighorhoods west of Sleepy Hollow Road at Belvedere (Amendments 2-4) all passed. The amendments dealing with Wakefield Forest and Bren Mar Park failed.
The staff recommendation, with the foregoing amendments, will be voted on shortly, but it will clearly pass. |
| Wakefield is moving to Woodson. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| This is terrific - my DD is only 6, but she won't have to go to an over croweded school - and woodson is terrific! |
| Wait a sec everyone, they still have to vote on the main motion - the rec as a whole. Hone has already cast a vote to reject THE WHOLE THING. |
| Aww, I wanted my daughter to be an Alison |
| what is an a"alison? |
| Staff recommendation with amendments 2-4 passed 10-2 (Hone and Evans opposing). |
That will pass -- it has overwhelming support. |
Allison is the name of Tina Hone's wealthy friend who was a mentor to her in high school. Hone mentioned her in supporting the amendment to keep WFES at AHS and said the students from WFES serve as "Allisons" to kids like her at AHS. Raney called her out on this later and pointed out there will still be plenty of middle-class kids at AHS in the future. |
| And all the news will say how disappointed and horrified WF parents are... not I! |
Sure they will. It's just that the over-crowded school will be Frost, not Annandale. |
