[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was really odd when one of the School Board members pointed out yesterday that FCPS hadn’t even put out a press release confirming the purchase of KAA had closed, and Reid very grudgingly said they could get out a release soon. It came across like Reid didn’t want to put out a release because she had no idea what they should say.  [/quote]

And, again, they gave her a raise.

Her staff was in charge of the presentation.  I would assume she gave then direction and reviewed it ahead of time.  To begin with the naming was really puzzling.  It defies common sense.

And, then to go with all the "possibilities?"

And, nothing about the facility and how it could be utilized as a traditional school.  You may not like it, but there are things that could make it workable. 
She had NOTHING about what steps need to be taken for that.

And, for those attacking this school not being in the CIP.  They have been promising it for years and told us there was no space (after giving the KAA site away.)

People act like it is fine to send these kids all over creation in at least four different directions.  And, this is not our first rodeo with boundary changes.  
And, some of us live quite close to our current high school.  But, now some think we should put our kids on very long bus rides because the school has grown too big.
Our kids deserve a traditional high school just like others do.  One where they can study and not have to get on the bus at least an hour before school starts and where they can participate in extra-curricular activities.

It is sad that you cannot be happy for us.  It is doing you no harm.

Very odd post. You’re criticizing Reid for not coming to a work session prepared with answers to some fairly obvious questions and then attacking other people who have those same questions.  [/quote]
