[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The county is indeed split. There are two or three factions depending on one's perspective. Certainly there's the group of the top 10 pyramids that are happy with how things have remained steady or even improved for them over the past decade, then there are roughly 7 very poor pyramids that have seen concentrated decline in the same time frame, and the remaining middle-tier group that could still end up going either way.

The problem is that no matter how balanced a candidate is, the "top 10" group will construe any policy that takes the focus away from their high position at the top of the district as a slight against them.[/quote]

What are the policies that currently somehow focus on the “top 10 pyramids”? For the most part these schools are expected to run on automatic pilot and get much less attention and money per student from FCPS than the other schools.

I gather Webb and Munir are the favorites in some areas (Franconia, Mason, Mount Vernon) because they want to allocate more money to the less successful pyramids and less to other pyramids, whereas Moon and the others would be more cautious before hopping on that bandwagon. [/quote]
