[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCCPS parent here, not a staff person....don't understand all the agonizing over parking at the secondary schools and complaints about construction. Maybe some of you never saw the HS building before? it was horrendous. We needed a new school; development of the adjacent land was absolutely necessary to pay for the new school. We have to live with the inconvenience for a few years (for example, I personally hate having to turn right every time I leave campus, but just suck it up and do it...)

All this complaining - what is your proposed solution? [/quote]

Ah, because it REALLY sucked before, you shouldn’t complain now that it sucks less. Are you a school board member?[/quote]

(by the way, I notice you did not propose a solution, just more complaining....)

No, not a school board member.

"Really sucked before" - do you mean the old high school? Yeah, it did suck. And we needed a new high school, which requires construction.

I don't understand people who live in jurisdictions and then complain endlessly about them. Falls Church City is not the cheapest place to live in the area, so if you're living here, it's probably because you want the sense of community and/or the schools. So do your research before you live somewhere. It's been clear that the high school was dilapidated and would need to be torn down and rebuilt for at least a decade if not more. Don't live in FCC if you don't want the hassle of an old run down high school building being replaced by a new school. There are cheaper places to live within just a few miles. Problem solved.
