[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bartkowski lives in the McLean HS area [b]but hasn’t advocated for an addition or renovation of the overcrowded school.[/b] It’s probably the top issue that might persuade a lot of Dranesville voters who normally vote for the Democratic candidate to switch sides and vote for an GOP candidate instead and he has nothing to say. Instead, it’s all the usual stuff about “parents’ rights” not being respected in FCPS. He’ll be lucky to pull 40% this fall.[/quote] That is not true! I’ve spoken with Paul, and renovating overcrowded McLean HS is one of his top priorities. Addressing overcrowding is right on his website: “ I will also focus on solving the overcrowding problems in schools without placing burdens on students and families; the two groups who suffer consequences from overcrowding despite having no hand in causing the problem.” [/quote] What’s on his web site could just mean spending as little as possible on FCPS facilities across-the-board (which some GOP candidates usually tend to favor) and reassigning more McLean kids to Langley and/or Falls Church. If he wants to get more than 35-40% of the vote he’ll have to be less vague than what you’ve quoted. [/quote] How does Robyn Lady plan to bring overcrowding relief to McLean HS? She was a counselor there so she is very familiar with how MHS has been neglected in many aspects, particularly with its facility. Since she has been also been with FCPS for a long time and has seen how MHS compares to other schools (facility and capacity wise), what is she proposing to help with overcrowding relief at MHS?
