[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like APE is showing us their hand... Spreading blatant lies about VMPI now in their newsletter? 100% GOP astroturfing. [/quote] I have no clue how APE is being funding and whether or not they are a GOP-backed front. That being said... I'm at the point that I am ready to start voting for some republican candidates (although not that nut "Major") for the school board. I say this a life-long Dem voting, hippy-dippy liberal. I have had it with the extreme reduction in academic standards at APS. This was happening prior to the pandemic, and the way that APS handled education during the pandemic didn't help (no-school Mondays, reduced hours the rest of the week for elementary...). The schools need to be teaching kids at THEIR level - bottom, middle, advanced, with the goal of making EACH child the best version of themselves. Right now, APS teachers are forced to spend 95% of their resources helping the bottom 5%, while leaving the rest of the kids to fend for themselves. The 95% are not reaching their potential, nor are the bottom 5% because there just aren't enough differentiated services. It's a crying shame. I love the diversity in Arlington and seeing kids from all parts of the world together, but APS has lost their way over the past 5-10 years.[/quote]
