[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Youngkin is appointing a DeVos staffer to be deputy secretary of education.  We don’t need his “help” in Fairfax as we value our public schools and aren’t trying to destroy them.[/quote]

Yet it was under the 12-0 Democratic School Board that:

* Schools were closed for extended period-[b]happened in many red states, too, my friend.[/b]
* Test scores declined-[b]declined everywhere[/b]
* Depression among students shot up-[b]happened everywhere[/b]
* Parents pulled over 10,000 kids out of FCPS-yep.
* Upending TJ admissions during a pandemic became a top priority and resulted in litigation all the way to the Supreme Court-[b]this was on the drawing board before the pandemic and the county can do things at once, you know.[/b]
* Foolish decisions with FCPS's limited capital funds were made-[b]don't agree.[/b]
* Overcrowding at numerous schools went largely or wholly unaddressed-[b]because how exactly do you expect to fix this? Teacher shortages and tax funding make redistricting and building new schools extremely difficult.[/b]
* IB programs with only 2-5% of seniors on track to receive IB diplomas go unexamined--[b]I would have to look  into this.[/b]
* No candidates truly qualified to lead FCPS emerged to become the next Superintendent-[b]just wrong.[/b]

You don't have to like DeVos or agree with everything Youngkin does to conclude this School Board is a dumpster fire.  [/quote]

Here is your problem-while all of this is true to some extent, not everyone, not even the majority, agrees that the SB was responsible, or thinks these are all bad things. Or look at these bullet points without context. [/quote]

Feel free to disagree and know that many of us will be heading to the polls next year and actively campaigning for candidates to replace this group of buffoons. [/quote]

And know that if you continue to put forth candidates like Elizabeth Schultz you will lose.[/quote]
