[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There have been some very unkind words said - in person - directed at both sides. Ridiculous. All of these kids will end up at the same MS in a few years.

APS staff should just make decisions without further community input. Obviously, the parents aren’t mature enough to handle it.

Agree the staff should make the decisions rather than have school board swayed by who has the brightest T-shirt color.

But it’s hard to see how this is much different from when Nottingham was about to be made an option school; an outside group was targeting their school and they would be scattered as a school community.  Same thing happening here, a faction of Cherrydale parents are targeting ASFS and scattering over half the schools population, shattering the community.

The outrage from Nottingham was widely lauded on DCUM; outrage from current ASFS community should be equally understandable.  [/quote]

No outside community was targeting Nottingham, that proposal came from the staff. Further, Nottinham focused their advocacy on the substance of the staff’s analysis, not on attacking other communities. Apples and oranges.[/quote]
