[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they have the A and B days then it should operate like two completely distinct high schools where the A students and the B students never really mix? (The exceptions could just hop on the shuttle.) If the A and B days are successful they could then transition the model into two completely distinct high schools without too much controversy? [/quote] Two distinct high schools will always be controversial. No politician will bring it up since every year will involve people screeching about racism when one school inevitably has lower scores. A and B days as well as wasting student time on shuttles is a desperate solution to avoid two separate schools.[/quote] Let's get real. No one, but the old superintendent was screeching about racism. [/quote] Not true. That's what the majority of the school board said too. One is still on the school board. And once the old superintendent said it was racism, the wine moms fell in line just like they always do for the Alexandria patriarchy. I watched it in real time at a George Mason PTA meeting. It would have been funny if it wasn't so pathetic. These are the same women who walk around in "I dissent" t-shirts with "resist" signs outside their houses. They objected until they were told their views by Hutchings and Wilson. And then they went around parroting what they'd been told. These are the past and current school board member (Jacinta Greene who now wants to be on city council) you can thank: "The Board voted 6-3 in favor of the Connected High School Network instead of constructing a second high school on the field at the T.C. Williams High School Minnie Howard campus. School Board Chair Cindy Anderson, Vice Chair Veronica Nolan, Ramee Gentry, Jacinta Greene, Margaret Lorber, and Christopher Suarez voted to keep the . School Board Members Michelle Rief, Meagan Alderton, and Heather Thornton were the three dissenting voices. They argued that Alexandria’s expanding population would eventually demand a second high school, and that now is the time to accept the commitment to build."[/quote]
