just because you keep saying it doesn’t make it true. |
I didn't say it. The AT kids said so in their testimony to the school board on Thursday night. 4 AT kids spoke and all were against the move of Langston to their building. Your weird attempts to deny this don't erase the reality of what actually happened. I watched, so I know the truth. Others did too. The school board certainly knows. I'm sorry reality is so hard for you. |
I would like to thank you, PP, because sometimes I get insulated in my bubble of smart, informed, educated, well-read, rational people. So I wonder how our country got where it is today with so many willing to follow and believe a lying predatory criminal. And who are these people. You have helped me to understand their mentality. Unfortunately, I still don't know what to do about it. When people are this dumb, irrational and unable to accept reality, I'm not sure where that leaves us. It's sad. |
| I think it is unfair to characterize the statements from the AT students as "not wanting those kids in their school." They are rightfully concerned about program changes that may alter their access to courses and administration of the school with separate administrators and pathways being proposed. The county has not been clear on this throughout the short and rushed proposal process. Kids at AT give up a lot when they choose a non-comprehensive program (in areas of arts/music/sports) and it's reasonable for them to want to preserve the benefits they get. They are not asking for restricted access for Langston students (they can already take classes at ACC just like all APS students) but it is fair to want to guarantee continued availability for AT students, especially those who are in the middle of the program. |
It’s difficult to navigate the board meeting interface on a tiny phone screen. Plus I’m with other people and it’s easy to make a quick comment vs watch an extended video. What were the students’ points? |
What were their concerns? |
Yes, those fkers just parrot whatever narrative they like, even if they don’t have facts or evidence to back it up. |
that's fine but a few pages ago people were claiming no one at AT was opposed at all, or that they would stop their opposition if langston wanted to come. and that's not what is happening at all. |
It’s obvious that Tech is not a priority for APS, and they will just dump programs into the GH for the reason du jour, because they only care about in seats not elevating the program. |
So the AT kids did not express concern about the Langston kids coming? |
Their concerns were about program changes and timing |
So what you told us is untrue. The AT kids did NOT say they were opposed to Langston coming. That’s why the PPs were asking for evidence. Because they suspected (rightly) that you were full of sht. |
You think some teenager is going to stand up in public and announce “i don’t want those kids and adults” at our school? Not only social suicide, but paints a target on your back for when schools are merged. |
LOL. Stop digging. We know you’re full of shit. |
I have no dog in this fight, I just think expecting students to speak up on this issue is a ridiculous bar and not worth discussing. The Board should be evaluating the impact on potential students, as this drama and fluid changing of the program may depress future enrollment. Those parents are certainly not being engaged. |
