I’m a parent at one of the affected schools and I initially was involved because of course I want to stay in the loop on what’s happening. Unfortunately, I’ve seen the level of entitlement and hysteria has gone off the rails. From someone comparing the move of a few option elementary schools to a genocidal regime (seriously, you can’t make this stuff up) to the last-minute antics, I’m saddened that parents I smile at in the halls are really like this.

I don’t think APS staff are infallible, but I trust them a lot more than a group of self-interested parents trying to convince the county that what’s best for them is best for everyone. [/quote]

+1.   saw the crazy attempts to lobby the county board to lobby school board, and media campaign, but missed the genocidal regime comment.  Please spill what's going on.

I think the problem is they have convinced themselves that this is an existential threat.  So perfectly nice, typically rational people, are going insane.
I think the other problem is they have been fighting it for so long.  Instead of recognizing that they were fighting a losing battle, it has allowed them to feel targeted.[/quote]
