[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I’m not sure why anyone would want to be on the board. You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t with anything in ACPS. [/quote] But this board, and previous boards, have never taken any risks. They simply follow what central office and the superintendents tell them to do. They only do one thing, the results keep getting worse and they keep the course. They never do the other thing. They never take any risks. [/quote] Then run yourself. Seems pretty simple, really. [/quote] It's not that simple, and you know it. There's actually a pretty small % of residents with kids in public schools in Alexandria. And an even small % of those parents that even care or notice the school board. So voters, if they even bother to research school board candidates at all, will tend to fall in line with the establishment candidates, those hand picked, or vetted by the city political "machine". And if you're not in-line with that group, you're not going to get their blessing, and you're not going to get elected.[/quote]
