[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I'm incredibly frustrated by the dialogue about this situation, especially on the ACPS Facebook group. People tear down every suggestion. SROs are racist. Metal detectors are racist. [b]Building another high school is racist.[/b] Being worried about the violence and wanting to do something about it is racist/white panic. I give up. I'm a Democrat but this is just too much for me.

I feel you.  It’s like nobody really wants solutions and we are stuck on this treadmill of no action being taken.  One lady came up with every explantation and excuse possible for why we could never ever have a second high school.  [b]How is it every other jurisdiction manages more than one high school but it’s an apparent impossibility in Alexandria? [/b] This is something else.[/quote]

Agreed. Ultimately, this is where they lost me. The school is too big. Period. [/quote]

Right, and school enrollment projections continue to grow yet we can never think about, consider, or discuss a second high school.  One single school busting at the seams and overcrowded for ever.  Enrollment is already the size of a small college and clearly that’s too much to manage.  Time to start pushing again for a second school once the new ACPS board is in office.[/quote]
