[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could someone PLEASE ask these "pause the boundary process" people how they can possibly be supporting any proposal that leaves a brand new school empty next year while other schools are overcrowded?  People flip out when one school is at 83% and another is at 107%.  These people are proposing we leave a brand new shiny elementary school at 0%.  They're actually proposing that. And no, we do not need random extra space for DL, or whatever they're suggesting. We need permanent seats for kids.

Please someone call them on it.  I'm not on AEM, or I would do it myself.  [/quote]

I’m in favor of moving McKinley to Reed and the domino option school moves, full stop. Grandfathering in 4th and 5th graders or taking planning units off the table because they were moved 1-2 years earlier will lead to partial solutions that never work towards a long term vision - because APS has no long term vision. Let’s live with the option schools move for 1-2 years as that supposedly buys a little time for Rosslyn. Then we can do a real boundary process for the whole county where every planning unit is in play. [/quote]
[b]Ding ding ding.  APS has no long term vision -- that is obvious.  Stengel is the worst part of it -- look at what she did with ASFS -- the enrollments/transfers change she forced through, then the swap which she then cancelled because it "didn't make sense", then forcing the boundary change (that freezes the entire eastern side of the county for any sort of comprehensive county wide change) during a pandemic.  I think she just forces change so she has to correct it in the future and perpetuates her job.  Such incompetence.  [/quote][/b]

You are my spirit animal.

Stengel is completely incompetent and dishonest.  Instead of saying, I don’t know or everything is still on the tables and I can’t make any promises, she has spent the last 3 years relying (and then lying) to different parent groups to do her due diligence, request help for sorting data, etc.  I really don’t understand why she is allowed to remain in that job.
