"Seema Dixit, the board’s new Sully District member, said she was especially concerned about overcrowding issues on the western side of the county.

“That’s where we have to put our brains together and find some creative ways,” Dixit said, [b]noting that land acquisition for some schools is coming far too late."[/b]

Please note:  this was in January of 2024.
Transparent need if you were paying attention.[/quote]

It was during the work session on the last CIP earlier this year.

Like I said, you/she wants endless resources for your part of the county.  If $150M got accelerated to spend anywhere else you’d have a fit. [/quote]

And, if you were having your neighborhood split in multiple directions and sent miles and miles to a school to spend hours on a school bus daily, you might think it was  money well spent.[/quote]

It may be money well spent. They haven’t bothered to answer some fairly obvious questions that deserve responses, however, and it’s telling that you apparently don’t even want to put them to the test.  Just give us what we want, and if it screws over other people, too bad. [/quote]
We all know there's no test the new school could pass where you would not object. You don't want it and will say anything to try to keep the capacity issues in the west as insurance against being assigned to Herndon in the next review.  The school could have been free and you'd still be against it or trying to make it anything but a high school. We've heard all your arguments multiple times over the past 50 pages or so, but I know you'll keep repeating them some more because that's all you've got left.[/quote]

DP.  Oh, great.  Crazy Lady is back, accusing anyone who dares to ask questions of being "afraid" of being moved to Herndon.  You have serious issues.  Many of us have stated - over and over and over again - that the purchase of KAA is a good thing for that area.  But any time a question is raised about the *funding* of it, you start up your rabid accusations and paranoia.  I live across the county and would still like the funding questions answered!
