Really stupid deflection from some very good points.

Probably not the only Democrat who will be voting for at least one republican-endorsed candidate for school board


"One Fairfax is a "racial and social equity policy that provides both the direction and means to eliminate disparities." While this is very much in line with my values, I had no idea that it could be used to change the process by which Fairfax County creates school boundaries.The school board has floated the idea of hiring consultants to implement boundary changes. Pat Hynes (who endorsed Tholen) says, "to achieve that right demographic mix." This will inevitably mean eventually removing neighborhoods from Langley to dilute the "island of excellence" that exists there. "

Ancient DINOs in Great Falls who lie about FCPS’s plans really shouldn’t bother to call themselves Democrats.

No one is getting rezoned out of Langley unless a new high school is built, which won’t happen for many years.

And you know that because...? The fact is FCPS knew Langley had open capacity , is in an isolated site for boundary changes, staff recommended changes by moving Mclean students to Langley on several CIP's, and FCSB privately consulted by Strauss in Jan 2019 would not give 7 votes to do a move.

The same FCSB that in 2019 effectively sealed the open capacity at Lee and Mount Vernon for perpetuity by adding onto West Potomac. Open capacity and boundary changes should not be so subjective. One Fairfax should remove subjectivity and politics from facility utilization issues.

Especially when there is bond money for capacity enhancements. Some DINO's who are Democrats actually care about taxes and equity. Base school Hutchison is title 1 and if you live in the attendance area are in this county and paying to NOT use Mount Vernon and Lee. Same for people whose kids are in the Chantilly Trailer Park. The operating budget money for extra trailers could be used at title 1 schools.

So how are you a Democrat? In name only? Only when it amplifies your own privilege and opportunity?

Depends on who is elected.

Perhaps after several hundreds of thousands are spent, they will be able to admit that the policy has been revised several times.

Maybe they need to pay someone to work with Brabrand so that he will be able to say to parents "I wanted to put a One Fairfax lens on boundary policy and that's why it is being reviewed. "
