[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure that's the inference I'd draw.  When both Barbara Comstock and Jim Moran support the same thing, as is the case here, you might conclude there is considerable support.[/quote]

I would not agree that either of them are "more informed about the proposal." It seems to me that area parents, teachers and FCPS staff are more informed than either Ms. Comstock or Mr. Moran.

So, going back to the OP's question, your point is that the people at Falls Church HS who oppose the proposal are "people who are more informed about the topic"?

Maybe - I don't know whether or not they are the most informed group of people about the charter school proposal.   They are certainly the loudest in their opposition.  However, the charter school proposal also has some heavyweight proponents, including Kaye Kory, Tina Hone and the current and former FCPS teachers who support its creation.   The school would be open to students in the entire county, and "marketed" to students in the Annandale and Stuart HS districts as well, so I'm not sure that a group of parents in the Falls Church HS district should be given veto rights over the matter.   I would try to give people at Falls Church assurances that, if this school is opened, it would not have any adverse impact on the timing of Falls Church's renovation.  [/quote]
