[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Angelo has only lived here less than 1 year. He donated to Ebbin in May 2022 and has Washington, DC as his address.

I understand a few people have such a grudge that they'll vote for him as a protest vote, but would you really want to trust this 22 year old with $800M of our tax revenue and our kids' education?[/quote]

[b]Better than someone who thought that abusing teachers, Duran, and other parents was acceptable behavior. [/b]

That shows, at best, poor judgment. At worst…

Either way, not someone who should be on the SB.

So, yes, he is the more trustworthy candidate. [/quote]

I know this has been pointed out to you repeatedly, but Miranda Turner never abused and teachers, Duran, or other parents. You're holding onto that grudge as hard as you, but your positions were wrong. We know that now but you just can't let it go. [/quote]

I know this has been pointed out to you repeatedly, but Miranda Turner personally chose to partner and [u]lead[/u] a group of parents who were abusive towards teachers, staff, and other parents. 100% her choice to do that.

Has her personal judgment or moral code changed since then? Has she apologized for any of that?

[/quote]

She has nothing to apologize for. She is not responsible for other people's actions. Have you apologized for letting your fear keep schools closed longer than necessary and the subsequent academic and socioemotional fallout that is disproportionately impacting the most vulnerable students?[/quote]

She’s responsible for her actions. She *chose* to work with these people. For years.

I know it enrages you, but Arlington Parents for Education is doing effective, informed advocacy in APS. It's not a black mark to be involved in founding it. You need to let go of the past. You were wrong. Move on. [/quote]

The fact that APE is still telling other parents YOU WERE WRONG tells me everything I need to know about this group's current mindset. Hard pass on their leader. [/quote]

I'm not even in the group, I'm just pointing out history is not on your side. You're encouraging people to vote for a person with no knowledge of life or the APS system at all because you are so bitter about the past. That is bonkers.

Her actions in the APS community demonstrated that she won’t go to bat for APS teachers, staff, and parents.
