[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think for me I will look at Virginia and consider whether it is better than it was 8 years ago. This is the end of a second consecutive D administration. There are some things that have changed that I am not happy about and I need to educate myself about them. I do not like the math changes in Virginia in part because I don't think anyone I know (mostly Democrats but some Independents) was asking for them. I feel like that should matter since we pay for schools. Local school board decisions are local but the Math decision was a state decision and I need to dig into how the Virginia DoE is influenced by the Governor. If a lot, I will not vote for D. If not a lot, then it won't be a factor. It feels very icky to me that this massive state-wide education revamp has been rolled out for discussion during a pandemic when parents have already been so distracted with remote learning etc. It feels to me like the DoE wanted to slip it in without anyone noticing and as a taxpayer and consumer of public education, that infuriates me. And again, no one was asking for this change. For me this is a major deal and if it was the result of Northam/McAuliffe governorships, I will not be able to support McAuliffe.[/quote] so your complaint after 8 years is an unimplemented proposal that still leaves local districts with autonomy? I get that the trolls are trying to sound reasonable, but this is down right hilarious [/quote]
