[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Some of the key players in that group are GOP operatives, they have an agenda and it’s to get people to vote Republican.[/quote]

Maybe true.  But, how about the FLE Committee composed of Democrat activists and political cronies?  
Does that bother you?

We need middle ground and we are not getting it.[/quote]

I should have been more specific. My concern is that this group is trying to create a lot of parental angst about the FCPS, not specifically to change the composition of the school board to R - they’d like to do that too but I don’t think that’s their primary agenda. They want parents mad at Dems so they vote GOP in statewide etc races. It’s the playbook that elected Youngkin. There’s a breathless “OMG look at FCPS failing our students again, it’s an outrage!” about any little incident they can exploit. I’m

Personally, I wish school board wasn’t partisan in any sense but in the age of so much divisiveness that’s probably a pipe dream. [/quote]

I don't know the people in this group.  From what I read online, there appears to be some divisiveness there.  I think they have become political activists because of the actions and inactions of our School Board.  I think it began with closed schools--and then people started paying more attention to what our School Board does.

I think most people in Fairfax County have no idea what is going on.  Local news reporting is almost non-existent except for social media--and that usually comes through "echo chambers."  WAPO is a propaganda piece for the School Board.  Fairfax Times is the reverse for Asra.

It seems to me that there are lots of "stovepipe issues."  These all have good reasons for being activists--but some go to the extreme.  I'll leave off the names of the people i think to be leaders.
Examples:  
1. The autistic group--everything is about Special ED. They have some good reasons to be in this group, but have gone to the extreme at the expense of the average child.
2. The Pride Group--Used to be in support of gays--now the main focus is trans in opposition to those who want separate bathrooms and for girls sports to be limited to biological girls. Proponents of mixed gender FLE.  Many of the FLE members are in this group.
3. The Open Schools people who have now joined other groups in opposition

4. The Everything is racist groups--they have strong support on the SB.  Lots of talk, but no concrete solutions other than to scream about it.  Anything to avoid the hard solutions--which, to me, means help the kids where they are with instruction and quit paying money for cosmetic solutions.  Some of these people think that shifting boundaries will solve the problem--it won't.  It never does.  It just covers it up.
The "Equity" push is their mantra.
