[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]T-shirt people wanted ASFS to remain at its current location and to walk to school. Period. End of story. It was not a nefarious plot to force Rosslyn out of ASFS.

It’s like saying Rosslyn people want to keep the old Key boundaries because they hate the walk zone people and are only advocating because they find it amusing that the neighborhood people have to see ASFS each morning as they get picked up by their school bus to go Taylor. No, the Rosslyn people simply want to continue to go to ASFS.

There appears to be only a handful of people, if that many (but who all appear to frequent this forum), who have a personal hate against those who want  a walk zone for ASFS (aka, the yellow-shirt wearing jerks, the bullies, the racists, the poor-haters, the cray cray, the shameful, etc.). I don’t think I’ve read anyone name-calling the Rosslyn folks anything on this board. Why?  Probably because everyone except the few haters on this forum are normal, reasonable people who can understand that different folks have different preferences and by wanting what’s best for their family, they are not purposefully trying to hurt others. They are just advocating for what they want.

The problem is, creating a walk zone around ASFS is reasonable now that ASFS is a neighborhood school and the name-callers can’t stand that. They hope if they scream and yell and throw the most ugly accusations around no one will dare touch their boundaries. That’s the only thing they can do because keeping antiquated team boundaries when two new schools are opening doesn’t make sense.

Talk about hyperbolic. No one is calling anyone racist. And the cray cray posters were about jointing another schools PTA in order to influence elections, which definitely is far afield and will be reported to the National PTA.

And yes, retiring the team boundaries when both new schools are opening is a great idea, so let’s make the sensible decision and wait for 2021.  Glad we agree [/quote]

A [b]Rosslyn poster earlier in this thread called he Cherrydale folks racist[/b]. Also, not only has the story of outside people joining the PTA to vote in the electi9n been debunked, but even if it were true, this is permitted under the National PTA bylaws so your complaint isn’t going to go very far.[/quote]

Quote the thread or it didn’t happen. Just spreading more hyperbole.

As for the National PTA, if their bylaws slow it I’m sure it’s because it is patently absurd to do such a thing. It will be easy for the PTA to reconcile from their records, not just trust some random poster saying it was ‘debunked’  :roll:  what proof?  I have heard this outside of DCUM so it could have some credence, but the National PTA can sort it out.  [/quote]
