[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So we're putting 1500 seats at the Arlington Tech campus. All of you ASF parents who are championing science education at the elementary school need to step it up and also make Arlington Tech an award-winning high school science program. If science is important for your kids, it should still be important even when it isn't being taught in your backyard. Calling Aneesh Chopra![/quote]

Do they really believe 1500 students will sign up to go to this school?  They are really dreaming.  Mark my words, this won't alleviate the overcrowding that the SB thinks.  They are just taking the easiest way out (like always).  I have yet to see them plan anything well.  Even the smallest projects seem to be fuck ups.  How can they be so off about McKinley?

Why is it that the SB is only recently being told (like 2 weeks ago) that the planning process etc. takes more than a few years out to build a 4th comprehensive HS?  Like no shit.  Are they really this incompetent?  Or merely apathetic b/c there's no opposition.  I thought I read in ArlNow that they can't even find viable Republican candidates.  I swear if they can fix the school issue, all of the Republican candidates can have my vote going forward.

Also, why haven't they even approached the CB about the possibility of putting a school on the VHC parcel, should the county end up doing the land swap?

Finally, I suggested earlier that the SB hire urban planners.  Someone told me that all counties have them.  Who the hell are Arlington's city planners?  I have never seen such a messed up system.  If we have some, we need to fire them and start over.
