[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now I'd like GFCA to put out a letter about their Western High scenario. I am guessing they are the ones who put in the comment into the boundary tool about moving McNair and Coates into Herndon HS. Which is never going to happen.[/quote]
Cute conspiracy theory. They don’t have a position on the school. Most people in great falls don’t care about the school because it doesn’t affect us directly. There are a few people who question the costs for the school, just like the school board members have done recently.[/quote]
Didn't they put out a letter saying it should be a magnet school? Or was that just the Nextdoor lady?[/quote]
Glad you asked, the group that put out a letter saying it should be a magnet school was a Democratic Party-aligned group not based in Great Falls.

I assume you’ll now spend significant amount of time attacking the democratically-aligned organization with the same vigor with which you attack great falls, right?  Right?

Why does their political affiliation matter? I assume most people in Nova are left of center but I also don't know what that has to do with the new school.[/quote]

Most people in NOVA are far left, not left of center.   Very few are left of center moderates, and even fewer are Rs.[/quote]

And none of them want their kids to go to school with the poor kids despite voting for people and policies that would see more of those poor kids imported. [/quote]

Yup like far left, highly educated NoVA people who fight for illegal residents never live in a town where there are many undocumented residents, such as the Town of Herndon or Manassas.

The town of Herndon has many highly educated people.  You Langley people really are insufferable. You have no idea how many people who could readily afford a home in your district go out of their way to avoid you.  [/quote]

That’s not likely a Langley post that you are responding to, but please don’t worry, we’re very happy with our neighborhood here in Great Falls. While we hold no ill-will toward anyone in a neighboring town, we love our community, and we’re happy that people who are in it are happy to be in it too.

Seems like win-win all around. We wish you the best![/quote]

Here is a response on Nextdoor from a Great Falls resident to a post about the purchase of KAA.

"what WONT they do to RUIN EXISTING SCHOOL BOUNDARIES? Get Ready people. They want to smite Great Falls /Langley pyramid."

Most of the 139 responses were civil and about process.  They totally ignored the need that the purchase resolves.  That there are students in extremely overcrowded schools. Nothing about how much the students in the area need a school.  Only complaints that they did not advertise that they were negotiating the purchase--just like they should have announced that they were competing to purchase the school.  Who does that?
