[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before coming down too hard on the parents who have the courage to speak up, you might want to Google the consultant and what they are doing in Brooklyn and Queens before attending. Parents (who want to simply provide comments) aren’t racist segregationists there either.

Is anyone other than me curious about why an architectural firm is doing the consulting?  Aren’t there educational policy consultants out there who could do this (spoiler alert: yes, there are).  [/quote]
Courage to speak up is not the same as booing and heckling, and just being downright rude. Some folks attend the meeting to get more information because that's the purpose of the meeting.. informational.... not listen to parents behaving badly.   There is a time and place for parental comment.

I'm betting when Obama gave his state of the union address and that R yelled, "You lie", you thought that was rude, right? I sure did. Not that different.

And as a PP noted, that firm does more than just architecture.

Also, many educational policy consultants also do believe in diversity, but I'm sure if MCPS brought those guys in, you'd complain about that, too.

Bottom line: you don't want to be rezoned even though there are several schools that are way over capacity and need to be rezoned.  You're defending your bad behavior because you don't want to move, not because you think MCPS is hiding something.[/quote]

No, I’d actually like to see a proposal that balances choice and boundary changes, that is collaborative and inclusive of ALL opinions, and helps meet the county’s goal of reducing emissions by 80%.[/quote]

That can't happen without a boundary analysis.[/quote]
