Boyle says he is for “reform” but he has been cagey about his true positions (and where his yard signs are posted around town say something).

Reif is a smart and an engaged Board member.  Unfortunately, she has been supportive of Superintendent Hutchings.

Greene, to me, seems like a nonentity on the Board.  There have been posts here that she is responsive to the community but she does not appear to dig into issues on the Board.  Again pro-Hutchings.

Bailey is a former city Council person that lost in the 2018 primary after supporting a restaurant tax increase to fund affordable housing.  I think he is a good person but I don’t think he appreciates that ACPS is not well run and needs change (and thus I cannot see him providing needed oversight of Hutchings).

I am see trying to get a better sense for Ohlandt.  She has three children in ACPS and seems to have a good sense of the problems that need addressing.

Excellent summary. I think I will be voting for Ohlandt and Boyle. We don't need people who can't and won't manage the superintendent. If Boyle's views are as extreme as his opponents say, then that will come out (and he'd be a minority voice in Alexandria).

Wow, PP, you summed up exactly how I perceive the candidates as well.[/quote][/quote]
