[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The mayor lives in del Ray? Do his kids go to J-H?[/quote] You’re funny. The last school board chair wouldn’t send her own kids to her regular zoned (non JH) school. The top people get to self-transfer. [/quote] They go to MVCS, that's where most of Del Ray is zoned. I'm not sure why this thread is mostly about JH. [/quote] Because it's one of the three lowest performing schools in the entire state and people that pay $12,000 a year in property tax are required to send their kids there? Because a huge chunk of Del Ray is zoned for it? Because the city has had a DECADE AND A HALF to fix the problem and haven't? Because SB members and city counselors won't even send their kids there? Because they get transfers for themselves but deny others the same? Yeah, not sure why this is being discussed on a forum about Va schools :roll: [/quote] The mayor (to-be)'s children go to MVCS where a HUGE chunk of Del Ray is zoned to. Only Del Ray south of Monroe is zoned to J-H. That being said, I feel both sides of the conversation here. My child is at MVCS and I am watching our accreditation closely. VA lowered the bar, but we are at risk of losing accreditation. The city and the school board are currently failing these students and I hope that the new administration can turn it around. [/quote]
