[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe I will vote yes when I finally see any movement on McLean HS getting a renovation.[/quote]

Not voting for other kids to get a renovation because your kids aren't is a very McLean parent attitude.[/quote]

Knee jerk stupidity. Look into how overdue MHS is for a renovation, how crowded it is, and how the county keeps green lighting development that will add to school crowding before you issue another thoughtless and uninformed statement like that.[/quote]

Lol. They kind of have a point though. Just because you're not getting a renovation means you're going to vote against other people getting renovations? There is nothing we can do about that. I would love for my kid's school to get a renovation, but that doesn't mean I'm going to vote against these other schools.[/quote]

See how you feel after voting yes on the bond for over 20 years and still not seeing your school which is in need make the cut.[/quote]

But voting no will just delay your school's renovations that much longer. They are not going to say "Oh, people voted no, better put McLean on the list." They are going to say "We only have the funds for one renovation this year instead of five, so I guess it will take 5+ years to get through the list we have." Way to spite your face. [/quote]

You don’t get it. They aren’t putting McLean on the list, not now and not in five years. The process is perverted by political interests and MHS doesn’t get through. We need an objective process based on capacity, facility condition and other relevant things. Not a school board member forcing one school to jump the line because it serves their interests.[/quote]
