No it isn’t. 2/3 of the schools are on track. If this is an attack why are t there more failing schools? The reality is that these schools are pretty bad and Arlington does have a two tier educational system. Hopefully this puts an end to the myth that all Arlington public schools are the same. This is why there is such a long waitlist for ATS. Parents know how bad these schools are and want an out.[/quote]

It’s a maga move to vouchers which maybe you support [/quote]

The confidence with which people state baseless conspiracy theories.[/quote]

It's easier than admitting that Dems have been running Arlington for a long time and we still have massive discrepancies between schools. [/quote]

okay so what's your plan? [/quote]

I think someone needs to say this out loud.  But politically speaking, democrats need to first realize that they might be really bad on education.  and I'm sorry if that ruffles some feathers.  We have one political voice in Arlington, and one only.  If you dare speak out against what the tribe has chosen, you are immediately cast aside.  Dare i say, what we are seeing with our public schools in Arlington has much less to do with Youngkin (or any Va Governor's) tenure, and more to do with decades-long democratic leadership embracing liberal and trending academic attitudes in public education.  For those who were willing to go for the ride, because even if we want to see EVERYONE challenged, I think many of us would be fine with a change that resulted in stark improvements to those who were traditionally under-served - we just simply have not see anything to suggest what Duran is doing is working.   Someone tell me I'm wrong.   [/quote]

A lot of education policy and funding comes from the state which has not been consistently Dem controlled. And some of what you blame Duran for are things that no one has solved. [/quote]
