[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its sad that every thing I read on this site about ACPS is negative. WTF[/quote]

As a taxpayer in Alexandria City, I want to see Jefferson Houston K-18 filled to capacity, and not with pre-K as it wasn't built as such. $43 million dollars is a lot of our taxpayer money. ACPS built it in spite of it being the brain child of an out going superintendent, and in spite of objections of many locals and others in the City saying it wasn't right to build an expansive (correct term) elementary school there. You don't fix lack of accreditation through a new building. Now ACPS needs to honor their word, re-district and fill the building and staff it with top notch teachers to educate the students. Jefferson Houston remains uncredited for the second year: that alone should be a reason to move to re-districting as soon as possible.

One of the reasons fellow local jurisdictions, as well as out of towners (yes, even as far south of Charleston SC, ACPS is well known, as I've been asked such questions) constantly read negative comments of ACPS is because ACPS doesn't honor its word to residents who live here and use their tax money primarily focusing on academics. We have elementary students jammed into classes, taking tests in hall ways, unable to play in safe school yards? [b]How can we raise ACPS reputation if a school such as Jefferson Houston Elementary is allowed to linger even after being rebuilt, unaccredited and unfilled[/b]?[/quote]
