And you just know the TG dad will be gloating his ass off when the new HS passes NV in the rankings.

Why is it unreasonable for people in the School District 9 years ago to have felt that too much money was spent building NV and that it was not the most prudent use of taxpayer money? That is not to say we don't need the 3rd HS now or that WV is a 'dump'. Why does believing that NV was overbuilt (for lack of a better word) translate into envy because you didn't 'get' to go there? There is a difference between WV being considered beautiful when it was built and building the most expensive HS built to date 9 years ago. It's really only relevant to what is happening today in that many taxpayers want to make sure the $$ are better managed this time around.
Of course DrW I think the WV bashing is boneheaded (goofy word choice). Particularly from someone who has never had children attend or even set foot in the school. Rediculous. I want to clarify that my feeling that NV was too expensive and elaborate is not a slam against WV. Of course comparisons will be made between the 2 schools when one is literally the 'taj mahal' or was when constructed and one was perhaps not maintained as well as it should have been this last decade.

And you just know the TG dad will be gloating his ass off when the new HS passes NV in the rankings. What will his reaction be when WV passes them both?!  |

You know the answer for that. Because we can't attend executive sessions.

dpc, you said, "And why pick on CV because she wants to keep the third high school in check and make sure that WV is up to par?"
She can't figure out the budget or walk up a flight of stairs. And yet you are asking us to believe she's going to ride herd over a construction budget and be an advocate for a school she didn't even have the time to fully tour?
Once again, it's not the dissent that is the problem. It's the fact that, to me and I think many others on this board, she's just the most palatable person that CFO/CRAFT/Taxpayer Alliance could put forth to do their bidding.

I am sure CFO is sure going to. CV has leaked before and I bet she will give CFO everything.

And one other item. I'd reccomed that if you run into anybody that says WV is a dump, you invite them to go see the school for themselves so they understand how ignorant they are. Basketball games are a great way to see the inside.
If they decline, you should tell them that, yes in comparison WV is not as opulent as NV, but then again, they wouldn't be too happy with Donald Trump calling their home a dump.

Although NVHS was touted as state of the art when it was built, I can't imagine any new school being built without similiar amenities. The board has said the new school will be very similiar in content to NVHS without the sprawl. It would be wrong to make it otherwise. Why create a stepchild? Once WVHS has the attention it deserves, it will be one of the three beautiful schools in our district.

Lets try to keep this topic on CV. We have veered off course.....
If you want to talk about the schools, do so in their threads

What really bothers me is that CV is the least of our concerns and by the way how do you know she has never been in the upstairs of WV??? Do you even know how many times she has been in there?? Could she have been in the school before she was on the SB?? So what if she is with CRAFT? She needed someone on her side, she was alone in her stance. It takes a lot to be the only no. I agree she is very quiet and a poor speaker. I have stated before I do think she is in over her head, but instead of focusing on her I am thinking we should be watching HC and JC. CV has only been around for 1 yr while HC and JC have been around for years.
There have been so many mistakes and lies. When I voted yes in 2001 I was voting to raise the teacher's salaries only to find out the district did not get the grant money and had to cut jobs because they stated we would have more kids then we had. Spent tax money to convert the middle schools to Freshmen campuses. How come no one critizes HC who was a big no on a 3rd high school back then. Sector G was around in 2001.
JC has shown herself to be unstable at best and to me that is more scary since she is the president, not just a SB member.

m3k -
To answer your question, the reason this thread is focused on CV is because she chose to put herself on the front page of the DH, and that is what this thread is about.
There is a thread on the 3rd high school drawings that mentions JC, if you want to post there, or feel free to start a thread about HC.
eta - Just b/c some of us voted yes does not mean we are HC or JC fans, some are far from it.
