[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's stunning that they were blind sided by this. How did they not know this is an issue? If they were truly surprised, we need to take some responsibility for this mess. They clearly haven't been hearing this from citizens.[/quote] There were many people who showed up at the SB meetings and pointed out exactly what Matthew Herrity wrote so eloquently about. The idea that they hadn't heard this before is baloney. They didn't listen, or they didn't want to hear. I also think it is stunning that they just didn't get how badly this would play. The report that APS has 3 of the most segregated schools in the state came out just a few weeks before they made their decision. Several speakers brought up this report at one of the SB meetings, many of us wrote to them about it and talked to them in person. This decision was just colossally tone-deaf. [/quote]
