[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“We” is our community! Our school district. Everyone who lives in FCPS bounds is responsible to providing our kids a public school education. As per a recent PTA meeting, we have 168 kids in the grade plus specials teachers. I sat and listened to how the kids essentially only go into their school building for the cafeteria, bathrooms or gym. AND while I’m certain the principal and school staff are doing everything they can to make the best of the situation, it is these kids community that owe them, yes OWE them a properly functioning school. My youngest hasn’t even started elementary yet (oldest is already there). None of this will be solved on the current time line prior to either finishing high school! [/quote]

FCPS has systematically under-invested in your pyramid for many years. As long as the test scores are good, they will keep screwing you over and investing disproportionate amounts of money in other pyramids like West Potomac.

These problems are getting more acute with all the growth taking place and planned near Tysons and West Falls Church.

Your school board member lives in Great Falls and your problems are not hers.  She will pretend to listen but there is no sense of urgency on her part to address overcrowding or dilapidated schools where you live.  Her own school got a very nice renovation shortly before she took office.

Replacing her next year with someone who is actually a fighter and prepared to rock the boat is needed.  Many of the school board members won’t mind if your schools fall apart and you move your kids to privates as long as you keep paying the taxes to fund their projects elsewhere. [/quote]
