[quote=Anonymous][quote]You're looking for some kind of quid pro quo, like you'll accept this school if you can guarantee some money earmarked for your school (McLean?). That's not how this is going to work. Not having to spend $450 million in the future is the benefit. Trying to tie how those future savings will be spent to specific schools or projects would only anger those who don't get their "guaranteed" kick back. The whole county benefits from not spending that money in the future as everything planned after the Western HS gets moved up by hundreds of millions of dollars.[/quote] People keep forgetting that there is a need for this school that would have been met already had the site not been given away and/or another suitable site found. It is not like it is a bolt out of the blue that the school is needed. It is serendipity that the school became available. Here is hoping that the School Board uses common sense and allows it to serve the community and not the elite who want a magnet. [/quote]
