[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was there tonight and she was threatening. Completely disgusting behavior. She was the worst but there were other McKinley people in the hall who were pretty bad. There were two neighbors who were horrified that buses would be driving through their neighborhood to McKinley as they walked to Ashlawn - seriously!!! They should be glad they are walkable either way.

My takeaways were:
- Large majority of McKinley will be walkers in the proposal
- ASFS population and surrounding is so large they can absorb ASFS and Key
- ATS can keep their name. They will be like HB move this year -everyone will go because they love the program.
- Key can move intact. Some people were only going there because it was close. Their population will fit in ATS just fine.
- Need to preserve VPI and ensure those classes are in the right places to best serve high rush populations.
- McKinley parents are possibly the worst in Arlington. [b]They tried to throw other schools under the bus [/b]and when their arguments didn’t make sense, they just yelled.

Bottom line is that the McKinley mom may stroke out but her neighbors and their kids will be just fine. No different than the Fleet or Discovery redistricting.[/quote]
Which schools did they try to throw under the bus and what were the arguments.

So bummed the recording isn’t available, hopefully tomorrow.[/quote]
