DEI is not superceding every other initiative and program in the district. That's a talking point. Not a fact.

It is the cause of dropping homework, lowering standards for assignments, switching to standards based grading, etc. For dropping the science fair, dropping service requirements for middle school, etc. All because some students cannot or do not do it. So schools have dropped or lowered standards and requirements. For equity.

+1. Pretty much every post trying to defend DEI is a 1 liner screaming LIES or STOP IT without acknowledging the fully laid out concerns by parents against DEI overtaking other priorities. Anyway I think objective readers of this thread can tell which posters are reasonable and which ones aren’t. I’m definitely not spending my time trying to convince the deep DEI faithful. Will be voting Republican in November.

There have been lies throughout this thread.

Which comment do you think was inaccurately called a lie?

I did not say there is not a single lie on this entire thread. Not sifting through this thread for you. You can tell me which ones you are calling lies. I will just reiterate there are a lot of valid and well articulated concerns on this thread about the current SB’s overbearing DEI efforts, and the pro-DEI posts have literally no substance.

So you don’t have a single example of a comment you think was inaccurately called a lie? Got it.

I won’t be voting for Republican SB candidates so much as voting against the Democrats on the SB who have been awful for years, but especially for the last four. They are just despicable - incompetent, hypocritical, virtue-signaling failures at everything they’ve touched.

Absolutely agree.

+1. I’ll be doing the same. Just the the anti-Trump voters in 2020. They didn’t vote for Biden; they voted against Trump. I will vote against the current SB.

I voted for Biden; I'll vote for him again. I think he's done excellent work. I didn't just vote anti-Trump. I would never, ever vote for one of the GOP SB candidates listed. I mean, you have a candidate like Moon as the top Democratic endorsed SB candidate. He's always focused on academics, he's got a ton of experience, and he's moderate. My guess is that you're just a pro-GOP person who thinks they can influence other "moderate" people by pretending to hold whatever position you think they hold. Fortunately the majority of educated people in Fairfax have more sense to fall for your shtick.

DP. Moon is fine. Telling, though, that the FCDC rewarded him for years of thoughtful and moderate service in 2019 by denying him an endorsement. It took four years of Abrar Omeish regularly embarrassing herself and the local Democrats for them to give him another chance.

Telling also that they endorsed him now--they learned from their earlier mistake. I was disappointed that he didn't have the endorsement earlier, and I would have voted for him if he ran. But I can critique the Dem SB/FCDC without running to a far worse option.

I have never voted R in my life but this election I will vote R for school board. I’m sick tired of this equity nonsense, which, in my opinion, tries to bring equity by lowering all the standards.

Also, while I have nothing against transgender and all that gender stuff, I strongly think schools must tell parents/guardians what is happening with their children in school. There must be TRUST between school and parents to better serve ALL students.

And last, while I don’t agree with book banning, I think I good compromise would be to require parents’s permission for their children to access controversial books, at least up to sophomore year.

That said, I will vote D for everything else as abortion rights is *MY* single voting issue.

You can remain a lemming but the reality is that most of the current FCDC-endorsed candidates are more like Omeish (inexperienced ideologues) than Moon (who wasn’t far left enough to make the cut four years ago).

It wasn’t FCDC who endorsed Moon. It was an open caucus where anybody (including Republicans) could vote. And several thousand did.

They endorsed Moon. They used an open caucus process to inform their decision which I thought was wise.

There are plenty of moderates. Just because you think “trans people exist and slavery was wrong” is “far left” doesn’t mean it is.

DP. No one thinks that. Nice strawman there.

DP. What are the “moderate” positions on gender and racism?

The moderate positions on these topics in school are to stop making every.single.thing revolve around these subjects. Perhaps just sticking to academics would be a great start. Just a thought.

Good news! That already happens today.

Not really? The SB makes noises about improving academics but they always seem to get sidetracked by other things.

Disagree.

Moon is a decent guy, although he’s been kicked around so much by the local Democrats over the years that he probably has Stockholm Syndrome at this point.

No one knows why Ryan McElveen is running again. He couldn’t have acted more bored and disinterested the last couple of years he was on the board. He hasn’t found another office he could win (he was a distant third in the BOS primary), but this a step back for him.

And there’s rarely been a bigger flake running for local office than Kyle McDaniel. Didn’t like him as a Republican? Fine, he’ll repackage himself as a far-left Democratic. Too boring as a white bread dad? Fine, he’ll declare that he’s a bisexual ally and close friend of Robert Rigby and the rest of the Liberty Fund core team. No idea what persona he’ll adopt if he’s elected.

David and AuCoin are far, far better choices for the other two at-large slots.
