[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where do they stand on boundary changes and dealing with facilities? Now that we’re not in a pandemic and the issue is not whether to have in-person instruction, these are the issues that tend to ignite passions. [/quote]

I would like to know this too. The APE group that Miranda led was consistently against air quality and health upgrades to facilities so I would not expect much from Miranda on this. [/quote]

I don't believe APE was against any of those things. It is highly unrealistic to think APS would be able to implement all the "upgrades" SOME people/person were insisting must happen fully before any student ever be let back into a building even to pick up something they may have left in their locker before shutdown. APE (rightly) understood that schools needed to open. That doesn't mean they were anti-health upgrades. Those AEM people insisting schools shouldn't reopen until everything in the facilities was perfect.....were they out in the streets saying the same about stores and gyms bars and restaurants and churches? Are they accusing everyone who supported reopening those things of being "anti health upgrades" or teacher haters?[/quote]

And this is why I can't take APE (or Miranda) seriously. You blame "schools not opening" on one person from one advocacy group; yet, we can't blame Miranda (WHO WAS A FOUNDING MEMBER OF APE) for their divisiveness and the despicable acts of many of their members? While she attempted to keep her hands clean, she is complicit in the divisiveness that has taken over Arlington. And that is why I'm not voting for her.

Yup. I'm voting for the outsider who doesn't know one thing about APS. Not because I want to but because I have no other choice.
