Lobbying for gun control? What does this have to do with education?

Good thing the meals tax failed.

I love our teachers and administrators but I hate their bosses - the SB. The SB does not have the parents' best interest at heart. The SB doesn't care what the majority of tax paying citizens of Fairfax County think on any issue. The SB tries to maneuver around us in order to achieve their self-serving goals. They need the boot. We need people on the Board who seve the people, not themselves.

Do a FOIA on it in February. They have 30 days to turn in their travel claims. That should be plenty of time.

Watch FCPS cut sports, classes, anything except programs contributing to the agendas of senior officials such as Lockard and the members of the school board.

You would think the non-passage of the meals tax (it made "so much sense") would have sent a clear message to Gatehouse, apparently not.

The board also thinks it should socially engineer Fairfax County to eliminate the “root causes of poverty.” (p. 10).

The root cause being that Fairfax County encourages non-contributers, in particular immigrants, to move here.

Our school board is fucked up.

No wonder little trans Johnnie can't read.
