[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think Sandy Munnell is the "North Arlington" candidate. She is retiring in June as a teacher at WL and lives in Bluemont. I guess that neighborhood is north of Route 50, but its the neighborhood around ATS close to Ballston. Sandy's website is rough, but she's also a teacher and not politically saavy with the weight of the ACDC behind her. Personally, I like the idea of a recent APS high school teacher on the School Board. I think we need that perspective, especially as we transition to a new superintendent and figure out next steps for whatever they do at the Career Center.  She's got my vote. Not sure who has my other one yet. [/quote]

She brings a perspective of reality - what it takes to actually implement an initiative from the teacher perspective; the teacher training needed before implementing initiatives for them to be successful. She believes iPads have no place in schools - that alone gets her my vote! Please be clear, that doesn't mean she's against technology in schools.  She's in the technology part of APS, for cryin' out loud.  But she brings a different and better perspective than is currently represented on  the board.[/quote]
