[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]James Lander. Can someone please, please, please run against him when his term us up? It has to be a Dem. A republican can't win here. I will canvas for you. He does not grasp the issues here. He is stuck on his personal view that race & income are irrelevant to achievement. Of course everyone has the potential. But We have APS stats on this. SOLs, SATs. It's fine to disagree about whether to use boundary changes to fix them. But please, spare us your uninformed view that the disparity doesn't exist here.It's embarrassing for a "world class" school system to hear that from the podium. He said he reads the forums. I hope he reads this. [/quote] 100% agree that this man is an embarrassment. He will be hearing directly from me about his remarks the other night. Among APS's espoused priorities, SES diversity (that is, not having concentrated poverty in one school) is THE most important for education. Not proximity, not neighborhood cohesiveness, not even overcrowding. His comments about this are completely asinine.[/quote]
