You need a quorum, typically seven votes, to change a school’s name.

It’s a self perpetuating trend.
Scores suck. People move out
Scores suck more.
People avoid moving in.
Scores suck the most.
People from the lowest SES are all that’s left
Scores suck in perpetuity ...

Agreed. Reason our school is rated so low. The English speakers do well.

Indeed. I guess it’s “racist” to speak truth.
But truly it’s ridiculous to push these tests on kids that aren’t fluent and are likely barely functionally literate in their native language.
But whatever. Carry on brave liberals. It’s much better to puff up your school ( ego) than actually push for a change that could lead to a better integrated school. Godspeed!

Perhaps you could stop with the babbling and insults and explain what you think would lead to a “better integrated school” and superior educational outcomes for students.

Umm... it’s in the first sentence on this exchange.

Attack on immigrants? That link to the article doesn't work. This works:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/immigration/immigrant-kids-fill-this-towns-schools-their-bus-driver-resents-the-system-that-brought-them-here/2019/09/22/861c0fb4-d321-11e9-9610-fb56c5522e1c_story.html

The article looks at receiving local jurisdictions and the per capita numbers of unaccompanied minors released to sponsors by Office of Refugee Resettlement.

Some small communities have been hard hit by the volume and the federal and state governments don't pay for the extra school capacity from UAC placed by ORR with sponsors.

Nor do either [state of feds]pay for impacts from irregular migration. Your property taxes in Fairfax County pay for the additional building capacity via bond referendums. This 6th grade class at Poe had 11 students:

The federal government doesn't even pay 100% for the FCPS program called Immigrant Family Reunification.

Let's be clear- the dialogues in Fairfax County are not about African Americans.
