FCPS is hiring an executive protection agent

[Anonymous]

I'd like to know if there have been any threats warranting this expenditure.

Otherwise it feels like part of a manufactured narrative that Reid and the School Board are courageous public servants just trying to do their jobs in the face of threats from rabid, uncivilized parents. The irony is that people absolutely want them to do their jobs, just with integrity and competence.

And the county executive doesn’t either. Reid needs to step down if she thinks she needs a bodyguard.

What a joke. Reid needs to resign immediately. Now she wants taxpayers to fund security because people complain because she makes poor decision after poor decision.

This county is an absolute mess and it's the kids who are losing out.

From the job posting:

Requires exceptional flexibility; schedule will be unpredictable and driven by the superintendent's daily activities and security needs.

Must be available for irregular hours, including early mornings, evenings, weekends, holidays, travel, and extended on-call duty.

Travel? Travel?

It’s basically to have someone with her on all of her school visits, etc.

But FCPS says the schools are safe especially the high schools with the new shiny medal detectors....right right???

Former Attorney General Merrick Garland, identified parents who speak at school board meetings as threats serious enough to warrant FBI involvement.

This thread is Exhibit A in why Reid needs someone to make sure she isn’t attacked at a public event.

Top schools in the nation. Shall we compare fairfax schools to a republican county in West Virginia? Won’t even be close.

It doesn’t establish that at all. What are you smoking?

On-call 24/7.

Has her life been threatened?
If yes, FBI will have the record of all the threats she has reported.

If you're that unpopular in a Dem friendly county....maybe its a sign to hang it up.
