[quote=Anonymous]The priorities of the current School Board over the past 2+ years have been such an odd mix:

1.  Dragging their heels when it came to getting kids back into buildings, leading to over 10,000 FCPS students exiting the system within two years

2.  Prioritizing admissions changes at TJHSST in order to reduce the percentage of Asian kids

3.  Keeping uber-wealthy Langley free of economic diversity

4.  Ignoring struggling IB programs (only 3% of Mount Vernon seniors getting IB diplomas) but spending money on a new "Leadership" academy at IB Lewis

5.  Spending money on building additions while nearby poorer schools remain under-enrolled or more overcrowded schools get ignored

6   Converting Dunn Loring administrative building back into an elementary school when it isn't needed, in order to save a dog park in Oakton

7.  Litigating with the Youngkin administrative over "local control" at every opportunity

No talented school administrator would want to step into this morass and immediately be asked to fix the damage these folks have been doing.  The School Board's entire philosophy seems to be to want to soil the nest so much that no one else will want to get involved.
