[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point on his RTS announcement was that literally every surrounding school district announced and Duran stubbornly refused to, for no apparent reason, until the next SB meeting that was two weeks off. Then Northam issued his order, and Duran backtracked the next day and said he would announce on Tuesday. Of COURSE he already had dates in mind. His hand was nevertheless forced by the Governor.

This is, fundamentally, the problem when you have one unelected decision-maker and no meaningful oversight by the elected board. [/quote]

He did not stubbornly refuse. WTF is the difference in knowing Feb 8 or Feb 18 about a return that is not until March.  There really is no difference.  In the end, my kids went back BEFORE my friend's kids in Fairfax even though Fairfax made the announcement first. I just don't understand why people care about the date of the announcement. The return is what mattered. [/quote]

It was the blatant superficial about face when it all went down. He went from saying, the metrics don't support re-opening yet, but, I will announce dates soon. To, I'm pleased with how things are improving significantly in our community, and in accordance with the governor's orders....--in a matter of like two days or whatever. It was entirely disingenuous and just showed that the messaging is not actually based on reality if it changes in a matter of days without any real change otherwise to the data, etc. [/quote]
