[quote=Anonymous]Lets apply equity and One Fairfax to access to indoor plumbing .  Back to basics.  Add in lockers- if they were removed from halls at Mclean where did they go?  How much did locker removal cost?  Where do the students put stuff?  Where is that 2m modular move on the bond to/from?

All middle schools have a large enough capacity for base school students to have AAP.  If any conclude that they don't have enough based on elementary feeders then …  look to site based management and instructional services.

STEM should be emphasized in all middle and high schools.  Bio 1 - the basic could easily be available in grade 8.  IB is a waste of money and in 2017-18 only 14% of all seniors at all IB high schools were in the program - higher % than got the diplomas.

Draft 8130 has some real political garbage in it:

-administrative boundary changes for high pupil placement area [tactic to remove from Lee etc].  Since Schutlz stated she'd not been part of developing it I assume it wasn't her on West Springfield.

-Whitman, Mount Vernon's middle school, is in West Potomac's Sandburg attendance area. Sends at least 85 to AAP at Sandburg.  Those middle schools have off balance demographics compared to the  2 high schools unless lower grades have had dramatic changes like Herndon feeders.

- FPAC and Eastern Magnet?  Can't even begin to wonder who and why and which politicians except for undercapacity at Lee and Mount Vernon...

-and taxpayers spent mega money on TJHSST but they don't fill it to capacity...about 300 below

- we all should get tax refunds for any trailer or modular or addition or new construction cost where they don't use the bricks and mortar - is it 100 m on fall bond for additions/new construction for justice, WP, Blake Lane?

New capacity whether by addition or new build should be a separate line item - 2 bond referendums .

And to top it of my political party is calling prior board members who actually did their task where not stymied by other politicians racists!  Prior board filled Kilmer then South Lakes yet current board is ???
