They’ve been disappointing for sure but are still lightyears better than APE/MT.


Looks like they are getting the away for the day policy they won’t shut up about.


It's going to be a terrible, ineffectual policy because there will be no thought or deliberation put into it. Just something that needs to be done because the State said so.


FCPS has an away for the day policy already similar to what Youngkin wants but enforcement depends on the school and is kinda meh. Expect the same from APS.

I'm glad that MK is chair now and hope that the Board can carry on without all the petty in the upcoming year. CDT and DP I doubt will have as many supporters as MK had at her inauguration at their last meeting for sure.


The funniest is looking back at the posters who were so, so sure the coup attempt could not be real.


I can't look down on the others who couldn't believe this shit. We have the most childish school board. Our 5th graders could run our system better.

This is bad because…?


It's a good policy but APE/MT will take credit for it.

I was one of those people. It sounds unbelievable even now. But being proven wrong just doesn't give me any satisfaction. The Board is FUBAR.

Her whole campaign was how she was a lawyer, knows what to do, will hit the ground running.


I heard she was a struggling attorney at a third tier firm which explains a lot. Similar performance on the board from what I can tell. Hopefully, it’ll get better.


I don't think she's actually that smart.

I read this thread and then watched the school board meeting. Mary praising Chen Ling in her speech brought down my opinion of her immensely. So much for pedestals!

+1

I just keep waiting for her to do something. Anything. After all that big talk. Criticizing is easy.
