[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If we can't find the money for after-school programs for middle school kids, we absolutely should get rid of TJHSST, IB, and AAP centers.  There is absolutely no justification for a magnet HS or these "extras" if we can't cover the basics for middle school kids.  [/quote]

At a minimum we should get rid of busses for choice programs like AAP Centers and TJ.[/quote]

Good lord- your kid didn’t get in, we get it, but this is getting boring as a retort at this point.  Think of something new. Maybe cutting all the coaches, or central office staff![/quote]

They already cut all the coaches for Middle School. It's strange that Prince William County has less money than Fairfax but still has Middle School sports. They have a different version of AAP - where kids are pulled for an entire day once a week - and kids can go to specialized middle schools/high schools for IB or computer tech or whatever. Seems to me, FCPS just mismanages all their money.[/quote]

PW has tons of data center money. They also have larger class sizes than FCPS.[/quote]

No they don't. They're much smaller. Everyone I know in PW LOVES the schools, has zero complaints. Several families moved from FCPS and are so much happier.[/quote]
