[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be easier to just create new boundaries across the county. Start as if no boundaries exist and see what they get , adjust to make the numbers make sense and present that. [/quote]

🤣 This process has been a disaster from the start, so let’s do something that disrupts ten times the number of students?

You aren’t a serious person.[/quote]

A redraw from scratch was the original plan.

PP's suggestion would just be going back to that.[/quote]

They are not going back to that.  That would involve ticking off one of their wealthier, organized groups.[/quote]

We all know who (as usual) will emerge unscathed, but their impulse to meddle means they'll still screw things up for some people, as otherwise they'll have nothing to show for their "transformative" boundary project.

[/quote]

So you want them to screw over some of your neighbors? I mean, do you want boundary changes or not? You’re very inconsistent here.[/quote]

Obviously not, but they make calculated decisions as to who they can get away with screwing over.  And that always means leaving one particular area alone while others get torched.  [/quote]

We call your stance: “Pulling a Vanessa”. Advocating for others to be moved but being upset when your own kids are in the crosshairs.[/quote]

Vanessa affirmatively wants boundary changes that don't include Mantua.  Others don't want [b]any[/b] boundary changes (besides those relating to Coates and KAA), but think the one pyramid that always gets a pass should be included if they're going to propose to redistrict others.

If you can't tell the difference, that's on you.  [/quote]

It’s just gross hypocrisy all around for the boundary change fans, I guess. A different approach could be just pushing back against unnecessary boundary changes period. Then you wouldn’t be a Vanessa.[/quote]

There’s nothing hypocritical about noting that one pyramid always gets special treatment and that its exclusion from boundary changes helps grease the wheels of the FCPS machine. [/quote]
This is disingenuous. Langley’s boundaries are changing. They’re picking up the Spring Hill attendance island which is a high growth area in the heart of Tysons. If they tried or successfully vetoed that recommendation (as it will put capacity at risk in future evaluations) then you’d be onto something.

I think this board just had grand visions for what the boundary recommendations would entail and the consultant didn’t take the bait. [/quote]

What’s disingenuous is suggesting there’s no difference between having some kids added to your school and getting booted out of your school.

The consultant no doubt was steered by FCPS to yet again avoid antagonizing the noisiest, richest families in the county.  Better to trample on others with fewer resources.  [/quote]

You are gross, Vanessa. Truly gross. There are only a few families who I hope get moved as part of this process, primarily any school board member’s kids, but you’ve now been added to the list, because you’re a hypocrite.[/quote]
