[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boundary change was needed. McLean was told to wait on a larger conversation years ago, which led to the formation of McSpaces.[/quote]\

So elaine's boundary change, negotiated with mcspaces and vance, reduced overcrowding at MHS?  The boundary change reduced capacity at MHS by how much?   Did it help?  If so, please provide more detail so I can understand.

DP, but the MHS enrollment this fall is at an all-time high with 2368 kids in December.

MHS has been overcrowded for a decade, and they've had plenty of time to adjust the CIP to budget for an addition to the school.

When asked what she's doing to fulfill her campaign pledge to secure funding for a permanent addition to the school (which has the least permanent learning space of any high school in FCPS, but an above-average enrollment), Elaine tells MHS that "she's only one of 12 School Board members."  Seems like being a Democrat on a School Board with 12 Democratic members might position Elaine to actually advocate for one of her Dranesville schools, but the only schools in FCPS she apparently cares about are TJ and Langley.

Exactly - how is it that a boundary change results in the highest enrollment at MHS ever?  Because the boundary did nothing.  Because platenburg cant predict what day it is tomorrow never mind how many kids will come from Tysons to mclean, marshall, etc.  Because FCPS considers itself separate from the fairfax county government vice sharing a renovation budget.  Because tholen is a manipulative liar.    Because tholens predecessor was a manipulative lazy liar.

As for McSpaces, they seem to have disappeared from the face of the earth.  My understanding is the leader is a loyal Democrat unwilling to call out Tholen's failures. [/quote][/quote]
