[quote=Anonymous]Mr Shapiro is clearly someone who is accomplished and who's opinion (in certain forums) is respected. He is also more than welcome to his opinion. That said a couple of things to note here:

- Mr Shapiro had ZERO children in FCC schools last year during the pandemic. Writing a moderately scathing national article of FCC schools, with just an opinion (rather than a solid reference point) isn't exactly helpful or endearing to the majority of the Falls Church City parents who had kids in school during the pandemic. It's like smelling the food walking past a restaurant and writing a bad yelp review
- Maybe some understanding and empathy to what both the school board, super intendant and teachers were going through? There's no playbook for "new pandemic" out there. They were all caught in between a rock and hard place balancing the safety of kids and getting the kids back into school. We were the first local district to fully open (from recollection). They were not perfect but what do you really expect? 
- He appears to the love a Twitter retweet about kids not wearing masks in schools as well. Not sure that really plays too well in FCC right now. I heard Southwest has some bargain flights to Florida right now (just a thought)
- I fail to see - given his clear right leaning opinions on public schools - why he wouldn't just send his kids to private school? Wouldn't that be a more happier resolution for all? I can foresee a situation where's he's critical of every school decision to push his own agenda which will be a massive energy drain

There is a hint of narcissism to Shapiro's candidacy. "I'm here to save the day everyone". Me and lady who put all the signs up. We'll get it done for the parents of FCC.[/quote]
