[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a Henry parent who lives north of the Pike, for the record. It's not just the south ones who care. And I want Drew to get a fair shake. And I think Henry was lied to by APS in the whole SAWG process, but I get that none of you care about that. Also, I'm not the one who brought it up, but it does suck that we lost our principal last year. And it does suck that some portion of the Henry community is going to a shiny new building and some kids are going to be left behind. And it sucks that Henry is one of the best, nicest school communities you can imagine and that people are saying the worst and most awful things about us.

APS has created this whole process where S Arlington is just eating each other and it's appalling.

There is one Abingdon parent who is actively sabotaging Henry on AEM and in a FB Fairlington group, and I wonder if she is not the one spewing most of the poison here. I hate this forum, because you don't know who is saying what. So I don't know if it's just one really terrible person or not.

Most of my experience with S Arlington though is that the whole place is great and values diversity. So it would be nice if we could start from that place.

But I also don't think it's fair to assume that the only way to help Drew is to get any one neighborhood in. That's dumb, guys. And every school paying attention has been asking to stay together.

The real issue is that APS doesn't give a crap about any of this stuff, or they would never have drawn the map they did and created this mess. Did you listen to the board meeting? None of them really care about this. They care a tiny bit about optics and that's it. And they are content to sit there and let everyone bitch it out among themselves.

They all suck, too.[/quote]

actively sabotaging? A bit much isn't it? [/quote]
