[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the anti-Lewis crowd on this thread and others on this site would have Lewis set aside as a permanent high-poverty school for THOSE people...[/quote] No. If you have been following the issue for years, Lewis has been an issue for a long time. There have been various more-or-less-serious proposed solutions including turning it into an IB magnet or closing it entirely. The new school board seems to be going with the rezoning solution, which is probably the worst solution that will be chaotic and ineffective. [/quote] The best first step would be replacing school leadership with someone who’s not clearly biding their time until they get a region or central job, someone more interested with substance over surface-level image. Maybe even start with someone who lives in Fairfax County and not another county. [/quote] +1 to all of above. Principal has high office staff turnover. Mediocre principal at best, promoted beyond his skills.[/quote] At least 2 APs he hired primarily because they went to the same frat. Predictably, they ended up being generally despised for their incompetence. But hey let’s blame the kids![/quote]
