[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Completely incomprehensible. Did she vote for grandfathering in more than just seniors? I was hoping for language that guaranteed a minimum of 6th, 8th, 11th and 12th. I can’t tell either if she proposed and voted for this or if it ultimately passed. [/quote]

She did not.  Only three or four members voted for grandfathering juniors.  I think Moon, Dr. Anderson, Lady, and Meren voted for the amendment grandfathering high school students (can't remember if it was all high school students, or just juniors).  The claim was the amendment was written too narrowly and tied the hands of the board and would not allow more generous grandfathering.  In my mind, it means moving juniors is still on the table, which is shocking to me as well [/quote]

It wouldn’t have been Lady.  She was the one that made a point to publicly proclaim in the governance meeting that FCPS kids are soft and that minimal grandfathering will toughen them up.

Such incredibly awful groupthink from the school board.  Led by Sandy Anderson.  Did you all watch her speech from the July 18 school board meeting?  She hates all of you, it’s very clear.  Seething disdain.[/quote]

No, she pivoted and was on of the four who supported Ricardy Anderson's failed amendment to guarantee that all high school students would be grandfathered.

Of course, there could have been some vote counting in advance, and Lady may have voted in favor of the amendment knowing it would fail, and others on the board may have had no issue with her doing so, recognizing that she's got constituents who will keep her under a microscope for the rest of her term.
