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.


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.


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).


And the other available candidates? Worse.


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.


Davis and Aucoin? The republicans ? No thanks.


Yes, thanks. We need more diversity of thought on the School Board. If we’d had some over the past four years it’s unlikely FCPS’s reputation would have declined as much as it has.

So republicans are whining for a free seat because they can’t win around here? Hard pass.

The past four years have underscored the need for a school board that isn’t a one-party circle jerk.

Your response is moronic.

+1 Voting Davis, Aucoin, and my local district GOP candidate. Would love to see liberals’ heads explode with an upset on the school board for once.

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.


You say people are actually lying about DEI when you don’t have a single example of a lie. Got it.

The GOP trolls on here are becoming more and more unhinged. Thats probably a good sign for the Democrats. Enjoy 4 more years of a 12-0 democratic school board.

As an immigrant from an ex-communist country, I have to tell you that it is never a good idea to have a 1-party system. Do you need more explanation?

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.


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).


And the other available candidates? Worse.


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.


Davis and Aucoin? The republicans ? No thanks.


Yes, thanks. We need more diversity of thought on the School Board. If we’d had some over the past four years it’s unlikely FCPS’s reputation would have declined as much as it has.


So republicans are whining for a free seat because they can’t win around here? Hard pass.


The past four years have underscored the need for a school board that isn’t a one-party circle jerk.

Your response is moronic.


The GOP trolls on here are becoming more and more unhinged. Thats probably a good sign for the Democrats. Enjoy 4 more years of a 12-0 democratic school board.

As an immigrant from an ex-communist country, I have to tell you that it is never a good idea to have a 1-party system. Do you need more explanation?


I’d hope an “immigrant from an ex-communist country” would recognize the irony in advocating for Republicans who tried to overthrow our own government on January 6th. One of those insurrectionists is even a candidate for this position who bragged about being tear gassed that day.

Do you need more explanation?

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

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.

We certainly don’t need people trying to tear everything down. Look at the Republicans in Congress. They are a security risk to our country.

I’m always hearing about these right wing crazies and their guns, yet when they tried to take over the country they decided to leave them home.

Weird.

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.


Don’t tell me you’re a thinking person capable of voting on issues….

I will appropriately and concisely respond to “diversity of thought” comments each and every time.

Disrupters don’t offer rational “diversity of thought”. Look at Rs in Congress.
