[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The language used by that group of base parents has been mean. Essentially, get out of OUR school. There has been no appreciation for the fact that those cluster II kids were assigned to Haycock and it is their school, too. Opening a new Cluster 2 center for rising third graders is not mean. Advocating that the kids not be grandfathered is mean. And FCPS did NOT propose no grandfathering. That was Janie Strauss guided by this group of base parents who are anti-AAP. It is amazing to me that those parents suddenly feel Janie is their savior. Janie is a skilled politician to have let Haycock get to this crisis situation and then unleash an us vs them fight that does not solve the problem and manage to make herself look like a champion for her voters![/quote] You are delusional. So... FCPS staff have underestimated enrollment numbers for years but Janie Strauss knew precisely what the "sweet spot" would be for enrollment to grow [i]just large enough[/i] to push out Cluster 2 students but keep a center at Haycock (to maintain its value)? Come on. Enrollment at Haycock grew by 120 students between last year and this year, and it's NOT just AAP growth driving those numbers. That is crazy growth! I don't doubt that Janie and everybody else at FCPS would have preferred that Haycock stay manageable through the renovation in order to avoid this kind of horrible in-fighting. What School Board member really relishes angering and disappointing people? Your comments are so cynical as to be outrageous. Now that we're in this pickle, parents are definitely behaving horribly toward one another. But that's on them, not some grand conspiracy at FCPS.[/quote]
