From Mary Kadera: The community is asking “Why not in Arlington?” in response to Fairfax Co opening its schools for four-day instruction. It’s a fair question and I hope APS leaders will answer it during the next School Board meeting. For my thoughts about what’s possible during the rest of the school year in APS, see https://bit.ly/3gv3rO1

Valuable WaPo article today on what Fairfax is doing this spring to be ready for school in August--note especially the intensive outreach to families and purchases they’re making now to ensure they’ll have the physical capacity they’ll need. Arlington needs to do the same, and before the School Board approves a budget on May 6. https://wapo.st/3sJXM9g

Mary just released this response to the whole who FOIAd the FOIA drama:

From Mary: I’m concerned about negative tactics connected to this School Board race. I’m working hard to run a positive race, and those who know me can vouch for how important that is to me. I hope it’s something you value, too. No FOIA requests or anonymous social media accounts from me or my campaign; not coordinating this with others, either.

There's less than a month to go until the Arlington School Board Caucus,
and candidate forums are illuminating what this election comes down to. Mary provides the spoiler alert.
