Neighbors for Education
Friends/Neighbors...while we have been focused on next year's operating budget for the School System, we have perhaps missed a more significant battle...the 2011-2016 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The CIP pays for new school construction. See the facts on the "What's Happening Now Tab above...they are STARTLING!
The School Board submitted their recommendation, which included funding for a new middle school and high school to open in Dulles South in 2015 and 2016 respectively. But the Board of Supervisors is considering the Compliance CIP, which does not include the two schools until at least 2018 given that their is no funding for the land until beyond 2016.
This will greatly affect every student in Dulles South in Middle School or High School starting in 2015. We need some funding for the long term welfare of our students. Please pass this to your neighbors and friends.
Sincerely,
Jeff Morse
