I didn’t see that. Date?

Only saw some former AT parents “concerned” about Langston.

I assume you will just claim this is APE parents like always?

McCaffrey is a hack.

This was two months ago. They didn’t bring up specific issues with the changes, just that they want more time and transparency in the process.

There’s a more recent statement from the Arlington Tech Advisory Committee that doesn’t really make sense. Lots of words to say they specifically have a problem with the Langston program and only want one school admin.

The committee faces a challenging dilemma. They want to avoid transferring a program to their school, especially since it serves a high-needs student population. While there's concern about the potential impact on enrollment at their own school, opposing these sensitive students and program could also reflect poorly on them. [/quote]

I think it's pretty clear. Here's a quote:
We oppose any narratives that stereotype, marginalize, or diminish Langston students in
a negative or exclusionary manner. Such views do not reflect the values or perspectives
of ATAC and misinterpret our concerns.

[/quote]

Of course they have to say this. They would vilified otherwise. They are banking on Langston wanting to stay in their own facility, so they can champion for them to not come to GHC. 
[/quote]

Langston wants to move. They said so themselves. AT claimed they would support the move if Langston wanted to come. They said they do.

Your move AT. Will you deliver on your promise to support it now? [/quote]

I’m fine with that.

Most current AT parents will be fine with it because they are already there and theirs kids will be 15 or older.

The problem will be attracting the 600 new students they need, entering at 13,14. [/quote]
