[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is a frightening list. All those mommies who thought voting for Youngkin would stick it to the evil Democrats are going to be in for a shock. Schultz is just vile. She was a terrible board member.[/quote] I’m a mommy who did this. First R vote ever. An good. After t*ts how last year, FCPS proved they should not have a monopoly or free education. If there had been charters and vouchers, FCPS would have had to open— or become defunct. Nothing wrong with making the, compete for students with the private sector. Bring on charters, vouchers, magnets, smaller more specialized HSs, etc. [/quote] LOL, the public schools are not going to "compete for students." They will continue to serve the kids of people who can't afford to go elsewhere, using whatever resources they're given for the job. If their funding is cut due to charter programs then they'll do less with less money. To the extent your property values are tied to schools, this is bad for you even if your child is not enrolled in that school. If you ever lose your ability to keep Junior in private/charter, he'll be stuck at what could have been a decent fallback option but no longer is. SMH at these people who thought voting R would ever help schools. Use your eyes: this is an incredibly rich area and lots of people left public for private in 2020: did that "force schools to open"? Of course not. [/quote]
