If you are in a good school district you are at risk. The only kids who are likely completely safe are the ones who go to school with the school board members’ kids. Those kids miraculously won’t be impacted.

Correction: if you at or near an overcrowded school, you are at risk NOT because you are at a “good” school.

Too bad they short-change some of the overcrowded schools, while wasting our money on unnecessary projects like Dunn Loring ES. With better management of resources, some of these potential boundary changes would be off the table.

Considering the analysis has not been completed and no proposals have been provided you have no idea what is on the table.

Sure, Sniveling Sandy Anderson. We believe that you aren’t pursuing this based solely on equity. 🙄

Funny, how none of the "lesser" schools are overcrowded. Wonder why?

Justice was crowded. It got a multi-million addition. West Potomac was overcrowded and hit a massive addition. Annandale relies on a modular. Otherwise it would be overcrowded.

It’s not just Lewis and Mount Vernon being “lesser” and under-enrolled.

Herndon was also overcrowded until it got renovated.

Couldn't FCPS just pay a number of kids stipends at each overcrowded school to attend private? What would it cost, $50 or $100m/year? Thats a mere fraction of nondescript line items in their budget. Then everyone stays at their schools, and some kids are better off for it.

Money will eventually solve the problem. If FCPS stays on its current trajectory educational vouchers will be a statewide item in 5-7 years so FCPS will have a lot less money in its budget every year.

Dunn Loring is in the CIP and it’s a massive waste of money. You shills for the School Board really know how to keep digging that hole.

Dear SB Shill,

We know that you like to parrot this talking point any chance you get, but you are a pernicious gaslighter when you make this claim, because there is ample evidence at this point what their ambitions are.

So, just own the SB trash. If you believe that they should try to make equity-based changes that’ll negatively impact mental health across the county and decimate communities, you should just own it. If you think you are on the righteous side, don’t try to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes.

If you’re right, you should be able to convince us why our kids should be used as pawns in the SB’s equity game and how this won’t decimate an already strained school system as many UMC families go elsewhere.

We have a good idea who the shills are - the same group of SB sycophants who get appointed to advisory committee after committee while normal people w/kids are effectively shut out. It’s how the FCDC machine works.

For the amount that school board members like to tout public input and hot much they are listening, it’s pretty insane hit much they stacked the boundary review advisory committee with others in their echo chamber

I blame a lot of this on the lack of local news reporting. And, to an earlier poster who mentoned the far right GOP nominees. I agree that is a problem. But, is it as much a problem as the Far Left on the School Board?

They should take away the party endorsements. That would help.

Remember, Omeish knocked out Moon because she manipulated the FDNC endorsement process.

And, it is difficult to get good GOP candidates when it is a given that the Dems will dominate. So, we get people like Frisch.

Most voters in Fairfax are unaware of the School Board mess--and most Democrats would not support them if they knew the agendas.

So, basically anyone that does not support your opinion is a shill?

I saw Hampton, Hall, Rigby, and Hosek on the list and immediately knew this was business as usual. Stacking the deck with the same group of party loyalists who’ll rubber stamp whatever the SB wants. Totally pathetic.

Not PP, but do you think these people represent the whole of FCPS? Clearly, there are some who are SB sycophants. I don't know the school representatives from my pyramid. Clearly, not from my neighborhood or I would recognize the name. We don't know if they are high school parents or which elementary school neighborhood. How are we supposed to communicate our own concerns?

It's pretty clear that the SB has an agenda. "Equity." Whatever that means. In this case it appears that they want to make every school the same. That is impossible, of course, so there will be winners and losers.

Do they really think this will work? By making the more successful schools less successful? Do they really think this will help those who are not achieving?

Put more resources where they are needed. Address the elephant in the room: we have a huge influx of kids who do not speak English and may not even have had education in their own language.
This will not be fixed by moving students.
How about":
COME UP WITH A PLAN TO HELP THOSE KIDS
