[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These McLean parents of last year’s 7th graders were so entitled that they could not understand they couldn’t get their way.  I saw them put their kids out there and feed them lines. Instead of teaching them to be resilient, they taught them victimhood.  The boundary change needed to happen.  You can’t grandfather forever.   I would have liked it to go even faster but they tried to grandfather those close to high school.  Your kids will be fine at Langley, for goodness sake.[/quote]

So the boundary change "needed to happen" - so it happened and 30 kid switched this year.  Dont you understand that it made zero difference??  It had zero impact on capacity at MHS.  Zero.  The FCPS numbers prove that.  So why do it?  Why leave any kids behind when it makes no difference?  Why not instead fight for a reno??  The narrative that a boundary "needed to happen before a reno" was a total lie.

I was not against a boundary change, but it needed to be meaningful and done right - in the end it was neither.

Did you volunteer to switch your kid to Langley?  Im sure your kid is resilient and would also be fine at Langley, right?  The boundary is fine for you as long as it is not your kid im sure.

Your post makes me wonder if you are tholen or another SB member. [/quote]
