PTAC. The absolute worst of the worst are/have been involved in this group. PTAC does absolutely nothing for parents and teachers except gaslight them.

Our east side elementary school's current PTAC rep was desperately trying to get her kid into private school to avoid GW but if anyone criticizes ACPS she gets mean.

They must really like restorative justice practices like Baum. Who apparently doesn't know that that's been the practice at ACPS for years.

PTAC lost all credibility when they let a woman who celebrated physical violence against an 8 year old child become president. She was legally banned from her own kid's school property.

Say what you will about PTAC, but I thought the forum was informative and the questions were good. It was a much-needed opportunity to hear from both candidates. I actually came away feeling fine about each of them.

Beaty definitely came across as more polished and prepared. I do like the fact that he speaks Spanish and has a clear commitment to the immigrant community. I was a little skeptical of his candidacy, but I don’t think he’s a bad choice overall. And I appreciate that he worked as a substitute teacher for several years after retiring!

Personally I want a school board member with stakes in the game as in a parent. I'm really tired of all these candidates who are just pushing an agenda instead of doing what right for students, residents, and constituents as in what our city council does.

Alderton is a parent. But her kids are in private school. Always have been.

Do you mean an ACPS parent? Because Elnoubi, Baird, Booz and Reif all have kids in ACPS but all are clearly pushing agendas that don't involve actual education.

It's despicable that such a small district that is swimming in money (they have so much they couldn't even bother to figure out what to do with the 54 million they got in COVID funds in a timely manner) is a total educational failure. And that they particularly fail the most at risk kids.

Did this happen recently? In the past 5-10 years? I've heard this story referenced so often without any clarification, I feel it is urban legend.

Not an urban legend by any stretch. Calling it one makes me wonder if you're her trying to run interference. We all saw you gloat on Facebook after your son viciously attacked another child. This will never go away.

NP here. This happened. The woman lives near me, the school was Brooks (then Maury). Basically what happened was one of her kids got upset that another kid on the playground said something rude about the mother's weight and so the son punched the other kid. That afternoon I guess the kid came home and told his mother what he had done in her honor and she posted about it on FB how proud she was of her son. I think someone printed out that post and took a hard copy to the school. PTAC lady is a lawyer, she should have known better. She is also totally nuts and still around, so be careful out there.

This. But you are leaving out the huge part. She was BANNED from Maury campus because of that post celebrating/advocationg violence against an 8 or 9 year old kid. Think about that. She was so batsh*t crazy that the school banned her.

She is persona non grata in the neighborhood. I'm actually surprised she hasn't moved.

Can we get back to the topic at hand (i.e., the school board member who resigned and the election tomorrow to fill that seat)?

Absolutely.

Which one of these candidates has demanded that PTAC and the PTAs stop being mouthpieces for ACPS and start representing parents and teachers?
