Maybe you can just create a mandatory field requiring OPs to identify the school system when posting a new topic in the VA schools thread? This way everything stays together under one VA roof, and it's easy to see which school systems are being discussed.

FCPS should have it's own forum.

Thanks for asking!

I support keeping the VA schools together, but reminding posters to put the school system in the subject line if it is specific to that county.

Agree. Keep them together.

How many are FCPS threads but not titled appropriately?

Right now there are several FCPS specific threads on the first page.

Only one that is truly overarching - about VA Virtual Schools. The rest are either district-specific or just general education (not VA specific).

The issue I have is that many FCPS posts aren’t titled appropriately making it difficult to sort through to find threads about other districts.

Yes. As a non FCPC parent it sometimes get overwhelmed with FCPC posts.

Yes

😂

Keep all the Northern VA school systems together, but people could help by specifying if talking about only one district.

I would NOT want this. I'd rather keep FCPS as part of the VA schools forum and keep AAP separate. I do not want to deal with crazy AAP parents in a regular FCPS forum. right now, they stay in AAP and it's much better for everyone.

Agree to keep AAP separate and FCPS inside current VA schools forum. I like to read about APS LCPS in the same forum as FCPS.
