[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers and other county workers should not be getting big raises at a time when Fairfax families are seeing their life savings wiped out by the Trump administration.  They should be lucky they at least have a job, unlike many others in the region facing unemployment. [/quote]

When times are “good”, I’m sure you’re the first one signing up to speak and advocate for school employee raises. Right? [/quote]

No, but I supported them.

We cannot afford the extra taxes to raise salaries now.  The savings of Fairfax residents are going up in smoke, and many have been and will be laid off.  We cannot afford a raise based on an entirely differ set of economic assumptions. Teachers should forego raises and realize they are lucky just to have a job. [/quote]

Suggestion:  cut Gatehouse staff.  Cut Gatehouse salaries.  Cut Instructional staff in schools that do not work with kids.  Stop boundary study.  Eliminate IB.  Reduce AAP and have it be only the gifted.  [/quote]
