Isn’t he the guy running against Frisch?

There’s no bigger moron on the School Board, and no bigger stooge among the current candidates, than Karl Frisch.

He spent four years ignoring constituents, wasting money, and trying unsuccessfully to get elected to state office before now deciding to run for re-election and start blitzing people with e-mail updates.

If someone decided to bait Sabio into an argument about 2A, so what? No one could possibly be worse for Providence than Frisch.


I've had several conversations with Karl Frisch and he is caring and knowledgeable about literacy standards and other academics. Based on his handout and his website, this other guy just doesn't know what he's talking about. I'd prefer we not elect another Elizabeth Schultz


You've got to be kidding. Lacks a college degree; has no kids in the system; and is wasting $60M of taxpayer money on a new school that no one asked for in Dunn Loring.

Completely incompetent at every level, and other local Democrats only put up with him because he's a bag man for large LBGTQ donors (he has more campaign money on hand than any other SB candidate by several orders of magnitude and it ultimately just gets passed around).

I am in that District and both options are freaking terrible. Sabio would not be focused on academics, he would just be harping about evil rainbows and parents' rights.


If you assume both are terrible, then vote for the newcomer (Sabio) to at least send a message that crappy School Board members are one-termers.

Frisch has been insufferable for the last four years; can only imagine how he'll behave if he gets re-elected and goes into full Sally Field "you like me" mode.


Isn't Frisch running for a state level position?


He tried that and failed (lost a primary). Of course, if he gets re-elected to the School Board, we can expect him to try and run for another office again while still on the SB.


Does he have kids in FCPS school?

Who represented families over mask requirements?

Paul Bartkowski is the lawyer who filed suit in representation of FCPS families against the Fairfax County School Board and its Superintendent, Scott Brabrand, right after the Virginia governor signed an executive order to end mask mandate in schools, and they refused to comply with it.


I thought they did comply with removing masks in schools but they had to administratively drag their feet about it for a few days first? I remember most of the teachers at my kid’s school (elementary, especially the early elementary teachers) stopped wearing them pretty much right away in March 2022 or whenever that was.


This is how FCPS defied the Governor, hence why families filed a lawsuit against them:

As a reminder, in addition to being tolerated by colleagues who've otherwise called him out as dishonest in text messages because he's basically a bag man for LBGTQ donors w/money, Frisch:

Isn't the majority of Frisch's campaign money from large out of state doners, particularly from the west coast?

Frisch has very few donors from Virginia or Fairfax County.

His support base is mostly far left activists with no ties to Virginia.

Question: why are people from so many other states invested in donating for a School Board candidate in Fairfax County, VA?

But Fairfax voters tended their votes to him.

Because he's on the ground here and can reallocate the money to other candidates who'll support the agenda of the donors.

It's not like you really need hundreds of thousands of dollars to win a SB election as a Democrat in Fairfax. The money comes in, and then the money goes out.

Is a college degree a requirement for the position? Is having kids in the system?
There are a lot of people who have roles in the school, paid and volunteer, who have no kids in the system but appreciate public education and love kids (and 100 other reasons).

So your accusation is that he . . . is a politician?

Look all you folks criticizing his qualifications for the SB had best post your own first. Because as far as I can tell, none of you have any more qualifications and yet sit here criticizing, opining, pontificating, and casting stones and you do it anonymously.

School board positions need to be apolitical. They are nonpartisan on purpose. So yes it’s fair to be concerned he’s a politician eyeing using his position on the board to seek higher office, especially given his lack of expertise and demonstrated preference for focusing on national political topics in order to raise funds for his senate race rather than the serious local challenges our schools are facing.

It's not like you really need hundreds of thousands of dollars to win a SB election as a Democrat in Fairfax. The money comes in, and then the money goes out.

It has become apparent that the agenda of the outside donors is what Frisch, Superintendent Reid, and the rest of the School Board fight for tooth and nail, as opposed to the will of their constituents in Fairfax Co., and in complete opposition to the 2023 Model Guidelines. Lawsuits are just around the corner from parents in FCPS who feel their kids are being affected by FCPS disobeying the Model Guidelines. Shouldn’t Frisch’s outside donors and the Democratic Party pay for that, as opposed to the Fairfax County taxpayers?

Honestly, you're embarrassing yourself here.

Frisch had no credentials to run for School Board; has been a wasteful and ineffective School Board member; and was willing to leave those kids that you're suggesting he cares about so, so much in the lurch by abandoning his position if the voters had only been willing to endorse him, and not Holly Siebold, in a primary for a House of Delegates seat. Wisely, they did not.

He is a somewhat effective lobbyist for the interests of the LBGTQ community, but with at least two other LBGTQ candidates running (Lady and McDaniel) it's hardly like that community stands to be without a voice on the next School Board. He needs to go.
