[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh yippee. She's "designing a framework." Because spending taxpayer funding on that sort of thing always works out so well for Fairfax County families.[/quote]

So your elected official is acknowledging that constituents have an issue and is proposing a solution that cannot be resolved overnight. And you just want to keep complaining. Got it. [/quote]

How long have you been around this system? How many times have you seen them do this? Because I feel like at this point it's a pattern - a school board member (thinking about his or her political career) theoretically "listens." They talk at meetings. There might be presentations. Surveys. Frameworks.

And then because they school board hears 6000 different perspectives they either do nothing or come up with a solution that makes no one happy.

It's not that I'm upset that she hears the concerns. It's that I'm upset because this is a pattern that has been around for years now and it never ends well. See the last calendar debate. See middle school start times. See the rudderless way they handled Covid. See the 3 hour early release days in elementary.[/quote]
