[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why the SB and Reid and FCPS admin are spending so much time and effort getting community feedback. Every management decision is not a democracy. They were presumably elected or hired for their competence in administrating school system. Set the boundaries and move on. Stop catering to individual HOAs or PTA presidents or whoever, It seems like the loudest, most-well connected voices are getting their way with the current ridiculous process. If FCPS wants us all to "get a vote" on the boundaries, set up a vote. If they don't want to do that, then make a decision using your so called expertise and judgment and move us all on.[/quote] You keep saying that FCPS shouldn’t listen to families, and we keep telling you how absolutely absurd that is. Sounds like you just don’t want to put in the effort that others do to advocate for your own kids.[/quote] DP. Families are absolutely not catered to in this same manner elsewhere in the country when there are boundary changes. The parents here act like spoiled, entitled toddlers. [/quote] Boundary changes are a big deal everywhere. The difference is that in most school districts it’s the equivalent of a parent telling their three kids they are going to their grandparents for vacation. In Fairfax it’s telling them they may go to Disney, or they may go to Paris, or maybe they’ll do a staycation, and asking them months in advance which they prefer. And then acting surprised when the kids bicker with each other about what they prefer. [/quote]
