[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her rhetoric towards constituents is unhinged, unprofessional and divisive. She owes the community an apology and the promise that she will do better.

2:05:00- “You can tell them to shut up” speaking about constituents.

Then later she talks about the ugly words thrown towards her. Ha!

2:06:20 “ So I want to be clear to this community and to all of my colleagues that a vote against this model is a vote to perpetuate the racist access to these programs that has been going on for some time.”

No. This is such a lazy and harmful comment. I haven’t met a person in opposition to increased access to these programs. You could have pushed this out a year or two to ensure the execution doesn’t further harm students in lower social economic areas. Framing in this way is reckless!

2:29:23   “That’s the racism” in response to those audience members who applauded Julie Yang’s vote against.

Just gross and shortsighted.

Let’s vote this person out.

Montoya talked about racist access to certain magnet programs. How will the regional program model change this? If she had looked at data for DCC programs that serve DCC students they are also disprortionately White despite being located in majority Black and Hispanic schools. What about the regional program model will be more racially equitable? How has Montoya worked to advance racial equity in the regional program model and what data has she demanded to ensure this? Yesterday she approved two boundary recommendations that increase racial segregation. The new WJ boundaries will make WJ 48% White. A mile away, Woodward HS will be 27% White. Quince Orchard HS and Northwest HS currently have very similar racial and socioeconomic demographics, but with the boundary changes Northwest will have double the FARMS rate of Quince Orchard. Montoya voted for this.[/quote]
