[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can’t have kids in buildings with hundreds of unknown people coming and going in the school building as they please. If one incident occurred this website would have 1000 topics dedicated to the ignorance FCPS displayed by not keeping their children safe. Today’s political environment is different than it was 15 years ago. There is a segment of the population that is much more “spirited” than before. FCPS is doing the right thing.[/quote] +1[/quote] This is a good point. The other thing missing in this discussion is, at least at my school, the parking lot on a good day is 95% full with staff. Where are voting officials supposed to park? Where are all the voters supposed to park? And what if they park in the bus lane (because you KNOW they will) when buses need to drop off or start picking kids up? How is the school going to maintain a semblance of security for the students when there are myriads of strangers just wandering through the halls looking for the gym to vote? Having a school open during a voting day is a major PITA for staff and students alike. I applaud Reid for recognizing this, especially in light of the fact that it may well be a heavily attending election day for Virginians who care about the future of our state.[/quote]
