[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there evidence of the donor connection that can be brought up at the boundary meeting ?[/quote]

I am not a fan of that particular school board rep, but that accusation is either an unfounded rumor, or a poorly worded sarcasm attempt that got picked up online and stuck.[/quote]

I don't want to add fuel to the fire on this one, but I actually heard the 'donor' is a wealthy attorney in Sandy's neighborhood who pushed FCPS to have every single holiday off.  [/quote]

Sandy's neighborhood is not Rolling Valley.

I am not a fan of that rep.

But there needs to be proof before pushing a serious, unfounded rumor like this.

I agree that her fixation on that Rolling Valley neighborhood is absurd.

That neighborhood going to WSHS from Lewis was not on any of the maps.

It was not on any of the Brac committee recommendations from a few weeks ago.

It was not something that the Franconia school board rep is asking for, or something the Lewis community needs.

The numbers used are ignoring all the high school students from that neighborhood who pupil place out of Lewis to LB, Edison, SoCo or other schools, so they are inaccurate and undercounted.

Based on the overcrowding at WSHS, rezoning this neighborhood does not make sense, especially since neither Thru nor BRAC recommended it.

Based on geography, the move does make sense, but then we circle back to overcrowding at WSHS and underenrollment at Lewis, and it ceases to make sense.

I think though that without proof, to keep repeating that rumor is at best, unhelpful, even though the whole laser sharp fixation on getting that Lewis neighborhood from Lewis to WSHS has been SAs #1 priority since the school board started revising policy 8130 over a year ago, amd likely the reason why Anderson pushed so hard for this county wide rezoning.[/quote]
