[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This, along with the results of the SB primary, shows that APE was a vocal, spoiled minority in Arlington that was out of touch with the statistical reality. Thank god.  [/quote]

How so?  Again, the point of the article was actually that most kids in the DC region won’t see the inside of a classroom this school year (so for roughly 18 months unless they opt for in-person summer school....assuming they made APS’s drastically reduced cut).  APE absolutely did not advocate for 4-5 days this year for “everyone.”  They initially pushed for the offered hybrid option to actually happen BUT ALSO for APS to keep the virtual option for anyone who wanted it.  I know DCUM wants to say that APE “screamed” all year but #OneAPS “screamed” just as loudly.  And who won, if you can call it that?

What this data shows is that MOST APS families wanted in-person learning.  The fact that APS could not accommodate this does not mean it’s not the case.  Maybe it means they never should have offered a hybrid option.  Maybe it speaks to really low trust and morale among APS teachers.  But I read it as another mark of a floundering school system that is not meeting the needs of most of its families.  [/quote]
