There will be links and live streams when the meeting is taking place:  https://www.fcps.edu/school-board/school-board-meetings

The sheer amount of time they have chewed up obsessing about the admissions policy to a single high school - TJ - is obscene.  It would be outrageous under any circumstances for a school district with 198 schools and centers; it is particularly egregious when kids are not even able to attend schools in-person.  And most of their discussions have been about how students should be selected for TJ.  Almost no time has been spent evaluating the impact of a change in TJ admissions policy on other schools.

One has to ask whether this nonsense only occurred because Scott Brabrand fears for his job and decided his best shot at getting his contract renewed was to suck up to the School Board members who dislike TJ, but don't have the guts to discontinue the Governor's School program. [/quote]

I think it's insanely ridiculous as well, and I actually like TJ. The amount of wasted time and resources spent on changing the admissions (yet again) vs putting in hold, keeping it as is for this year, and instead focusing on all the other important issues during this pandemic is absolutely silly.[/quote]
