[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I did not mean she designed this whole thing.  I meant that she has allowed it to grow for 7-10 years without addressing it.  Now, when it is at this level, she has designed a solution that leaves her looking good.[/quote]

If Janie Strauss "looks good" in this situation, it is primarily because some AAP parents browbeat FCPS Staff into drafting a recommendation that provided minimal relief to the overcrowding at Haycock and forced people like Janie and Kelly Shears to step up and be the adults in the room.  [/quote]

The AAP parents did not browbeat the staff into recommending grandfathering.  I had a lot of discussions with staff.  They told me that they strongly prefer to grandfather where possible because it's better for the children.  I understand that some think it's not feasible at Haycock due to the numbers and that's likely what the board will decide, but please don't mischaracterize what happened.

I do have to quibble with Janie Strauss being the adult in the room.  For the longest time, Janie wouldn't even meet with the Cluster 2 parents.  That's not exactly being the adult in the room.[/quote]
