[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey look!  The SB just honored the one person who literally ignored capacity at MHS for 25 years and forced the meaningless boundary change on Tholen!

Can the hypocrisy get any worse?  Get over yourself SB.  Let's vote them all out.

Janie was asleep for a long time, but the boundary change she tried to get approved in 2018 (it was blocked by other Democrats) would have moved more kids and actually aligned with "One Fairfax" by moving some of the Tysons apartments/condos to Langley.

Elaine then pushed through a change that moved fewer kids and reassigned none of the MHS areas that were growing faster to Langley.  So Langley picked up more expensive single-family homes, while all the current and future condos/apartments in Tysons stay zoned to McLean and Marshall.  Then they changed TJ admissions so Longfellow is sending more kids to McLean and fewer kids to TJ, which largely offsets the limited relief provided by Tholen's scheme.

Tholen has managed to alienate more people in two years on the Board than Strauss did in over 20 years.  Maybe she'll come up with something new over the next year; as it now stands, she's largely handed the Dranesville seat (and probably at least one of the at-large seats) on the SB to a Republican in 2023.

And just to clarify, Elaine's "scheme" only moved about 20 kids from MHS to LHS this year.  100% irrelevant and meaningless, just like her.

So who are you going to get to replace her?  [/quote]

A Donkey?  A frog?  Anyone - anyone from any party.  Cant. Be. Worse.  [/quote]
