[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a good idea in theory, but boy is it going to mean boundaries change all the time over the next five years

First they'll adopt their boundary changes for fall 2026 in early 2026.

Then they'll get a plan for AAP at every middle school.

And then they'll have to change boundaries again to adjust for schools that don't currently have space for all their AAP students to return.

Good times ahead courtesy of these people who have demonstrated no ability to plan sensibly.

All this should have been sorted out before a county-wide boundary study was conducted.

These people are absolute idiots. [/quote]
The idea is good but the timing is terrible. It should have been in their priorities when first scoping out the boundary review. It is the epitome of comprehensive and access to programming.

I don’t think anyone on the school board has their fingers on the pulse to the degree that the people on this forum do. Some of the changes in the current scenarios are detrimental to Universal AAP centers. Kilmer and Thoreau being the most glaring example. The current plan overcompensates shifting Kilmer enrollment to Thoreau to the point that Kilmer is under 90% enrolled and Thoreau is 104%. South County MS will also feel the strain if the current scenario holds.

Hopefully one or two adults in the room will pump the brakes on their self imposed timeline. Between KAA and now this, they’re putting way too many irons into the fire 3 months before they’re supposed to vote on it.

They should never make [/quote]

They were very proud that people on the BRAC weren’t selected because they actually had relevant knowledge.  Compare that to a committee like the FPAC where you’re asked to demonstrate your qualifications.

They just wanted people they could lead by the nose and get to rubber stamp their plans.  Fortunately, they did end up with some members who have really tried to educate themselves and ask the right questions.

But the sequence of events is completely backwards.  They’ll change boundaries to eliminate split feeders, then they’ll have to change boundaries to reflect AAP at every middle school, and there’s a good chance they’ll end up creating new split feeders in the process.

Reid is simply not qualified to lead  FCPS.  She doesn’t know when to push back against the School Board and, when she does come up with ideas on her own, they are impractical and often a further distraction.  [/quote]
