"Outreach" is a wonderful thing, true.<BR/><BR/>Did the Board "outreach" to their fellow elected officials with their OWN statutory rights and duties, with an eye toward improving their joint mission, or merely with an eye toward absorbing control of their function?<BR/><BR/>Much as there was discussion of absorbing the Sheriff's Department and replacing it with a police department under the

Ms. Musey, I would hope that our SB members would go the extra mile and do more than the minimal "required" to do their job. Outreach can never be a bad thing for a public official.

It is the school board's job to go find out what the special interests want first before they do their actual JOB?<BR/><BR/>Now, where does it say that in their charter? In state code? Anywhere?<BR/><BR/>A set of tails already wag the dog in this county.<BR/><BR/>Barbara Munsey.

John, You seem to put a fair amount of responsibility on the special interests' failure to engage with you early on. You can turn that argument around and say that the School Board and their Staff need to do a better job of vetting sites with the public before they become so emotionally and fiscally invested in a site. Take a look at the school site selection process you are operating under and

I, too, am outraged at Mr. Miller's decision to not only vote against allowing the Lenah land purchase to go through, but for motioning to deny it. I am under the impression, and could be wrong, that the district lines are going to be redrawn in the near future. Because of this, Miller is not planning on Dulles South remaining part of his district, I'm sure. So, yes, he is unconcerned about

I am furious! I've written to Mr. Miller asking him to bring a motion to reconsider, and telling him I'll never vote for him again. And yes, I signed my name and address so he would know I am a voter in his district.
