Vote Frisch OUT!

Sabio lost of my vote and several of those in my neighborhood after hearing about the raffle.

So where is the proof of this raffle? C'mon folks.

The proof: his own YouTube. Go to 9:15

Not an AK-47 but an AR15

Sabio is crazy.

And, scary.

What is scary is a school board member who wastes over $60,000,000 (sixty million dollars) of scarce FCPS budget dollars on a school no one wants, while teachers are fleeing in droves and kids all over the county are condemned to temporary trailers instead of classrooms, -

- and you want to re-elect him? Seriously???

Well if he gets elected again he’ll jump as soon as there’s some other vacant seat he can run for. Frisch does not care about kids one bit.

Where would you prefer the school be located? It was so clearly opposed by the local residents in Blake Lane.

Your question presupposes that a new ES is needed. The 5-year projections in the CIP don't suggest that one is. If FCPS has longer-term enrollment projections that could support the need for this expenditure, they should publish them. At the HS level, on the other hand, there is clearly a near-term need for more capacity, most immediately at Chantilly and McLean but others are projected to be over capacity as well in the 5-year outlook. They're spending their facilities money on the wrong priorities.

Karl Frisch does not represent Chantilly. Where in Providence District would you prefer an elementary school be built?

The bond which we approved allocated funds for an elementary school in the Providence district.

[Anonymous]

The bond referendum booklet referred to a school in the “Fairfax/Oakton Area” not to one in the Providence District. Dunn Loring is next to Vienna, not Fairfax/Oakton.

But Karl treated it like it was his money to squander as he pleased. The point of building in Dunn Loring wasn’t to help that area, as it is surrounded by under-enrolled schools. The point was to make sure the money was no longer available for the Blake Lane school, which Karl and his friends opposed.

If one were to take the position that the money had to be spent in Providence, it would have made more sense to build at either Blake Lane, as originally planned, or in Tysons (where FCPS has an option to build a new urban ES near BASIS McLean). There is no need for a new school in Dunn Loring surrounded by four under-enrolled ES (Cunningham Park, Freedom Hill, Stenwood, and Vienna), none of which is overcrowded or projected to be overcrowded.

Frisch is an arrogant jerk who wastes taxpayer money.

Fairfax and Oakton made it pretty clear they didn't want that school.

Every time you post in this and the other threads designed to bash all Dem SB members before the election, you just remind me to go vote (for them). So thanks! Clearly you haven't studied marketing tactics.

False, but lying is one of Karl's specialties.

People have posted some compelling reasons why Dunn Loring ES is a big waste of money, to which Karl and his friends invariably respond with half-truths at best. If that's what you value in your candidates, go for it.

[Anonymous]

Seems like there have been no updates on this project since November 2022. Probably wanted to make sure that parents weren't reminded in an election year of all the unnecessary upheaval and protests that will invariably happen when the boundaries of the surrounding, under-enrolled elementary schools have to be changed.

What a waste of funds. The next School Board should cancel it.

Karl needs to fix his folly at Dunn Loring. Fairfax/Oakton needs the money intended for it back. The county is considering plans to allow 1200 housing units at the AT&T site at Jermantown and Chain Bridge and more housing where the office buildings are on Rosehaven/Arrowhead between Jermantown and 123 near Oak Marr Rec Center. Fairfax City also has proposed apartments and townhouse on Eagan near Chain Bridge.

But Karl has told us several times that Fairfax/Oakton doesn't want a new school. Not at Blake Lane Park, nor anywhere else in Fairfax or Oakton.

Really, the only other alternative was to build a new school in Dunn Loring near four below-capacity schools. You should be congratulating Karl on his brilliance and foresight.

Never heard of “Save Blake Lane?” They did so much organizing, hosted events, signed petitions, were at BOS/SB meetings. It would be stupid for Karl NOT to listen to the worries of his constituents.

[Anonymous]

Ah, so Karl finally admits that this was all about placating his buddies who wanted to save the dog park at Blake Lane?

He reminds me of Sam Smith so much that I’m expecting him to open every School Board meeting now with a performance of “Unholy.”
