[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone who has a better understanding of the recommendations document explain what the "Flagged Sites for Future Review" means in terms of what will happen for the 26-27 school year?  I am a Bull Run Elementary school parent that was set to transition to Virginia Run next year.  I am assuming this means that Scenario 4 stands and our neighborhood will still be moving but don't know where to go to get information. I've emailed our BRAC 3 separate times and cannot get a response, so I'm assuming that isn't going to work now either.[/quote]

The only changes are in the actual superintendent’s presentation. That change has been deferred and your school won’t change for 26-27. The schools on the last chart won’t be changed. [/quote]

Meaning it will not change from the previous Scenario 4 boundary or will not be making boundary changes at all?  We have several neighborhoods that were slated to change within Scenario 4.  Thanks again.  [/quote]
[b]Scenario 4 is dead. The only changes are what’s explicitly stated in Reid’s presentation.[/b] [/quote]

Interesting. My interpretation was that we essentially have Scenario 4.5 - Scenario 4 plus or minus the specific changes identified in Reid's presentation. And I was assuming that Reid's changes are based on (most of?) the promises she was making at the community meetings in the fall.  However, if that's not the case, I simply cannot wrap my head around what a colossal waste of resources this process was.[/quote]

I think that many of us are wondering the same thing.[/quote]

Sandy Anderson just put out her email (which erroneously says the draft CIP is out) and she says this: “Thank you for your patience and for the thoughtful, constructive engagement you have brought to this process. This work represents [b] an important first step toward the incremental changes needed [b] to ensure our school boundaries remain responsive to shifting enrollment, community needs, and the long-term health of Fairfax County Public Schools.”

They’re incremental changes now, huh? Quite a change from where we started. [/quote]
I hate her.

The “incremental” phrasing seems intentional, to denote either a smaller change or one of a series.

They need to stop with the comprehensive boundary change BS. It’s a complete failure.[/quote]

I read this as that’s what she’s signaling. Along with their permanent BRAC that was mentioned in the slides. They’re going to be doing boundary changes non-stop from here on out from what this sounds like. [/quote]

You mean more frequently than 5 years?  Springfield, vote this person out please![/quote]

100% Sandy Anderson needs to go in 2027.  Rest assured her email wasn't just saving face--it was a threat.  I bet she is livid that none of her wanted changes were made (like moving Hunt Valley, Rolling Valley, etc.), and if she is still around after '27 you better believe she will start the same fights all over again.   [/quote]

People are sheep in our area and vote down “their” ballot no matter what. It’s ridiculous. [/quote]
