[quote=Anonymous]The Fairfax County Times article is so badly written. Terrible, terrible journalism.

According to one of the comments to the article, the parents singled out another student:

[color=darkblue] [/color]these 2 married Dads confronted another child harshly over perceived issues (a mid-east student) to scare and bully the little girl they thought was fighting with their daughter. No parent has the right to personally verbally attack another child.

This is precisely why the head of school stepped in, to encourage resolution through guidance and dialogue, not intimidation. What’s more concerning is when parents escalate disagreements by verbally attacking school leadership, calling them incompetent, and threatening legal action over matters between children. That kind of conduct distracts from real solutions. Again, this is not a matter of racism… it’s a personal hitjob with the use of antisemitism being weaponized to incense the Jewish community to rally around in support of a personal matter.

Did it ever cross anyone's minds that with such a diverse student body and power DC connected community, that this social studies exercise has just now being brought to light and in the context of racism?? ... and nobody in the large Nysmith Jewish community had brought this to public attention? NO – because this is being presented under false context to use race card and take revenge for their inappropriate behavior. These two Dads are bullies in their own right in this community and have intimidated other families with their harassing and accusatory behavior.

Take a look at the school and let us know all the racism you see happening at this extremely diverse institution:

Goes without saying that this couple, Ashok Roy and Brian Vazquez, are not Jewish and using their $$$ to use the race card and buy your support and opinion. Do a little research Fairfax Times.[color=black] [/color]

Of course the commenter immediately loses credibility by suggesting the plaintiffs are not Jewish.

However, if the parents did single out a child and spoke to them directly in a confrontational way, that alone would be justification for removing the family from the school.

Not saying it’s true one way or another but perhaps there’s more to the story than has been presented in the complaint. [/quote]
