[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If any incremental increase in poverty is such a problem for you S. Arlington parents, then where were you in fighting all the CAFs that APAH and VOICE and AHC and the misplaced 60 something liberals that run your civic associations want to fill the Pike with. Your school is going to have more poor kids. Why didn't you speak up then instead of calling your CARD neighbors racists?! You reap what you sow. The School Board can't solve your problems. [/quote] I was there. A tiny difference ( which they've already thrown out) was made and we were called racists for our trouble. It was awesome. [/quote] So, you got called racist and that stopped you from continuing to pursue a fair and equitable division of AH across the county? I'm not understanding this. You gave up on what you know is the right thing to do because someone called you a name? You need to vote against the CB and every bond, etc and organize your neighbors. Be vocal. Don't worry about what people are calling you. Increasing the poverty density on the Pike is the actually racist position.[/quote] If you vote against the school bond, you are going to be making the overcrowding worse. See below for what it covers: This proposal will make funds available for the Arlington Public Schools’ capital improvement program. The proposed bonds will fund the following projects: the new middle school at the Stratford site ($26,030,000) the new school at the Wilson site ($78,400,000) addition and renovation at the Career Center/Arlington Tech ($12,000,000) planning for secondary seats at location(s) to be determined ($10,000,000), and infrastructure capital projects such as HVAC, roofing, etc. ($12,400,000) The School Board may reallocate bond funds among the various projects to the extent necessary or desirable.[/quote]
