You do understand that school choice is a state issue and not a national issue? The Federal Government doesn't have a say on school choice.

Will be a Federal issue once this bill is signed into law - https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/833/text

The boundary study all but guarantees school choice in FCPS. But it is needed nation wide.

They could use those building for additional classrooms if needed or even turn the buildings into specialized programs for kids with more serious learning issues. All sorts of possibilities.

How are states influenced by federal? You can’t be that naive to think they don’t impact one another? Surely not?!

Someone hasn’t read the reconciliation bill proposal that gives tax breaks for tuition. You’ve pulled the wool firmly over your eyes.

Btw, it being a state issue not local issue makes vouchers infinitely more likely, especially in a nuclear boundary change environment.

Everyone wants to pick apart every word of a sentence. Community can literally mean a small body of people with a larger group of people. If you have departments at work, each department is its own community in a way given you have a shared common goal which should align and uplift the overall company vision. It’s very simple. Why make it complicated?

Kids are kids. There will always be good and bad in every community. It’s true, usually public schools have better maintenance for a variety of reasons. Hopefully the school will be maintained well. As a KAA parent, seeing this injection of hate is really sad. Let’s just all focus on why we are here which is education for children, that’s it!

A public school belongs to the entire community.

That comment is kind of telling, isn’t it? They don’t see themselves as part of the local community and don’t seem to want to be.

I think you have very limited knowledge on ho me women live in Saudi and all info based on mainstream media. The Saudi women have been business women and owners of property from a very long time since the start of Islam in-fact, Muslim women had the right to divorce in the 7th century, predating women’s right to divorce across many cultures. Women are also encouraged not to change their last names once married to take on their husbands’ last names (unlike the western culture), so that women can maintain their own identity. Yes, maybe Saudi has a different vision now, but they should have worked with the community to find a solution. But when the owner wants to sell to a specific person only, what can others do?

Maybe, the Saudis are moving in a different direction. When they purchased this site, women were not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia. Now they are. Maybe, they no longer see the need to isolate the community.
