[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the CCPTA doing to help with Equity in APS? The grant program and training is just "Rearranging the deck chairs on a sinking ship". The CCPTA should take a leadership role in making our schools and student body more equitable instead of just hiding behind the same old 'walkability' argument. Even the 2021 proposed 'determining factors' of Transportation Efficiency, Utilization, Stability and Diversity/Equity places EQUITY last on the list. [b]I hate to tell you but driving EQUITY in APS needs to make some well to do families families uncomfortable.[/b] https://ccpta.apsva.us/wp-content/uploads/sites/45/2021/03/CCPTA-Boundary-Change-and-School-Move-Recommendations.pdf The CCPTA needs to take a leadership role to drive EQUITY and not just high five each other for redistributing a few thousand bucks, doing some training and recommending policies that will just perpetuate the current inequities across APS. [/quote] Were you around when South Fairlington thought they might get bused to Drew? They were already on a bus to a severely overcrowded Abingdon. All of these processes are inherently designed to be inequitable. This is the Arlington Way.[/quote]
