[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read a lot of “boundary changes for thee, but not for me, unless we get moved to a higher rated school.”.  So, will the consequence be  depopulated lower rated schools, to point where even fewer advanced classes will be offered at them?  Feels quite NIMBY-ish to me, and “screw them for being poor.”.[/quote]

You sound like certain school board members. Nobody is saying screw the poor. Only the equity-minded crew who want to start class warfare with their neighbors.

It’s less NIMBY and more NOTBOOKS (not on the backs of our kids)[/quote]

Very “ME” vs “WE”. Ok, I got it. [/quote]

Your extremist purity test ends up costing the democrats a lot of elections.[/quote]

Does it? In Fairfax? 1 Republican Board of Supervisors member, 0 Republican School Board members. They could lose a number of seats and still be in full control.

While a massive boundary shift might get the School Board in a lot of trouble, some targeted adjustments, even unpopular ones, are not likely to cost the Democrats full control in Fairfax.[/quote]

Good point. Let me go talk to the Democratic president, senate, and House. I guess what you are saying is you like the status quo. (To deflect your anticipated response, I voted Harris).

Like I said, purity test has cost a lot of elections.[/quote]

DP.  What's the "purity test" for local politicians in Fairfax?  I just see them muddling their way to bad decisions that will degrade FCPS and are the textbook definition of "the juice isn't worth the squeeze."  But there doesn't seem to be much ideological purity on display. [/quote]
