[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More from Vern Williams - sorry I just read this and had to share: "During my forty-plus years as an FCPS teacher I always made clear that I would never view my students through a racial or cultural lens. I am part of the old school crowd who still believes, as did Martin Luther King, that one should be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. The “One Fairfax” doctrine seems to suggest the opposite view. I sense that changing the TJ Admissions process is only the beginning. Every program for advanced/gifted students ranging from AP participation to AAP will be viewed through a racial lens instead of an academic/readiness lens. I feel that they will be diluted to the point of non-existence." [/quote] Mr. Williams had been the best math teacher in FCPS. He knows more about education than all the SB members combined. Sadly people like him are retiring and the quality of public school education keeps going down.[/quote]
