Ahh, the fire alarm, which should have both notified the RFD and indicated where in the building the alarm was triggered but did neither owing known maintenance issues was not the primary contributing cause but it’s the fault of the nonexistent sprinklers - which would have likely failed anyway due to… lack of maintenance.

He never went to a children’s museum as a child?

I said this is state wide - most of these schools were build 50 years before our peer in the countries. There’s a $26B statewide need to repair or replace Virginia schools. It’s a current issue in the GA. This isn’t just RPS. Rps is just further in the hole than most. Bristol is rough too.

Lololol

Somebody got a pay day…(or a cease and desist lmao)

How’s life in the Cookie Factory?

Which is only impacting RPS which spends the most per student in the region? Skepticism seems warranted.

Casinos are an inherently extractive industry, the entire business model is you go in with money and hope you leave with money. There's no need for scare quotes. The casino group put out pie in the sky projections and if you don't believe them you're somehow a racist? Get real doofus.

It’s cool to have FUCK big on a sign wearing your Porn N Biscuits shirt until you’re ready to get to your truck with the truck nuts but I’ll be DAMNED if my kid sees someone in drag! 😡😡😡

/s I would hope it’s obvious but these days you don’t know

Can't even walk down Cary St without a layer of foundation recently

Yeah. Woke toddlers.

This genius clearly confused “socializing” with “socialism”.

Thirded. Wife and I love this place.

And no - were not here because of fire alarms. That was obviously bad - but it didn’t prevent RFD from getting to fox BEFORE it was in flames. They cleared the building and LEFT.

We’re here because there are some 50 schools in RPS and too many of them (fox included) haven’t been retrofitted for sprinklers because that costs about $40k per school and we don’t have that money.

Dread it. Run from it. Costar arrives all the same.

I hate it when the corporation wins.

Ask these people why they aren’t protesting child beauty pageants

Failures of human beings

Kid Tells teacher. Mommy took me to the museum, and I learned a new word, F@#$

The Board voted to demolish Elkhardt Thompson (forest hill Ave) in 2020 because its poor condition is “unfit for use.”

90% of the RPS budget is for desperately needed staff. We have $9.5M in CIP funds in the current draft budget. At that rate of annual investment we’ll make it through all $2B of deferred maintenance in 210 years.

That’s not because of a couple of decades worth of a shitty facilities director who should have been fired a long time ago. That’s because school funding is systemically broken and schools have no way to afford their maintenance or replacement.

My kid was on a field trip at the Science Museum yesterday and saw this twat. He thought it was hilarious 😂
