[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Innovation lab and charter schools” doesn’t sound that different from TJHSST and Karen Keys Gamarra’s plan for a social justice “leadership academy” at Lewis HS in FCPS.

So it seems this is all about power and control: as long as a school or initiative is championed by local Democrats, it’s not only acceptable, but laudable, but if Republicans or their appointees offer variations on the same theme it’s somehow a fundamental threat to education.

I am so sick of one party in NoVa trying to dictate everything that touches on public education.  It’s not like you are running the schools efficiently, and you don’t try to keep D politicians like Obama and McAuliffe from sending their own kids to expensive privates, so just stand down for a while and let Youngkin’s team get settled and set forth their own proposals.  This effort to deep six ideas before the new team has even taken office in Richmond just underscores that you’re not interested in kids or education, just maintaining power and total control of the public schools like a bunch of mob bosses.
