Omfg the ad???

Bro is there a way to turn that ish off? It just came up in the middle of me typing, which made me click on it, which took me out of the screen and deleted the four paragraphs I'd just finished. I don't care that it pops up when I open or go to the main page, but in the middle of a chat window???

What is this thing on my messages??

No lorebook, no memory, no nothing, this is a relatively new chat. I don't use Lorebary as it actually makes my chats worse. I use Gemini and I've never seen this until today

Did ACPS dismiss your concerns?

I am collecting information from community members related to ACPS student safety, reporting concerns, policy gaps, staff-student boundary concerns, transfers/reassignments/resignations following misconduct concerns, retaliation after reporting, settlement/NDA concerns, or situations where families or staff reached out to administrators, district leadership, HR, Title IX, or the School Board and did not receive a meaningful response.

​

At this stage, I am specifically looking for firsthand information that can be supported by documentation or records, such as emails, letters, screenshots, meeting notes, dates, report numbers, board records, public documents, settlement/payment-related records, or other materials that can help establish a timeline.

​

If you have information to share, please use the private intake form linked below. Please do not post names, student information, private details, or allegations in the comments.

​

I understand that many families and staff members need privacy, and names or identifying details will not be shared publicly or with the larger group without permission. If you have concerns about retaliation, public exposure, personal consequences, or prefer to communicate in Spanish, please note that in the form.

​

If your concern involves suspected child abuse, sexual misconduct involving a student, or a current safety concern, please report directly to law enforcement, CPS, VDOE/licensing, Title IX, or another appropriate official channel. This community effort should not be the only place serious safety information goes.

​

For people asking for repeated background or context: I understand that not everyone has followed every update, but I cannot keep re-explaining everything in comment threads, especially when this involves children, families, personnel issues, and sensitive information. I am intentionally keeping public comments limited and process-focused. If you do not have children in ACPS, are not connected to the schools or community working toward this, or are only here to argue, mock, demand confidential details, or derail the conversation, respectfully, this is probably not the space for you.

​

The focus is student safety, records, accountability, and policy change.

​

This form is very thorough, depending on how much information you have to share it may take a bit of time to fully complete.

World Cup Paramount

If y'all are looking for somewhere to watch the USMT, tonight at the Paramount was phenomenal! Great seats, great crowd, good snacks, kind workers. A+++ experience. Sad they're only showing the US games, but that's all right! Definitely give them a little business if you can 🩷

ACPS next steps

I apologize in advance to everyone tired of seeing my name over these last 72 hours. Hopefully this will be the last post for a few weeks regarding this matter from me.

I want to say this carefully because I know everyone is processing a lot.

I’ve heard from many people privately over the last few days, including people who want to help but do not feel comfortable being public. I understand and respect that. At the same time, the volume of separate messages, separate FOIA efforts, and separate conversations is becoming difficult to manage in a way that is organized or effective.

I’m not claiming to speak for everyone or to be in charge of this. I’m simply trying to create one organized space for people who want to help in a careful, task-based way. So I’m working on setting up a private online meeting within the next two weeks for community members who want to help in a calm, responsible, task-focused way.

This is not about anyone taking over. It is about making sure we are not duplicating work, missing deadlines, overwhelming the process, or losing momentum. The superintendent’s resignation does not make the remaining student-safety, policy, reporting, transfer/reassignment, and accountability questions go away.

The goal is to organize small work groups so people can help in manageable ways. For example, one group may track FOIA requests and deadlines, another may review ACPS policies, another may build a factual timeline from public records, another may monitor School Board meetings, another may identify agency/reporting channels, and another may help with community updates. No one needs to do everything, but we need people working together instead of separately.

You do not need legal, education, or policy experience to help. We also need organized people who can take notes, track dates, save links, follow up, and help keep information organized. I also understand that many people want or need to remain private. That is 100% okay. There are ways to help quietly, and no one will be asked to speak publicly or attach their name to anything they are not comfortable with.

To protect children, families, and people who may fear retaliation, I will personally confirm each attendee’s connection to the ACPS community before sharing the meeting link. Attendance will be limited to people I am able to confirm in advance. The link will not be posted publicly and should not be shared or forwarded.

*******This meeting is intended as a community organizing space and is not open to ACPS administrators, central office leadership, School Board members, or anyone participating on behalf of ACPS. Current and former teachers, staff, parents, guardians, and community members are welcome to reach out, especially if they want to help in a careful and private way.*********

This will NOT be a rumor meeting. No student names, no confidential details, no personal attacks, and no unsupported claims. The focus will be records, student safety, independent review, policy changes, and accountability.

If you want to help, please message me directly with your name, your connection to the ACPS community, what kind of help you may be able to offer, and whether you need your involvement kept private outside the meeting.

Call to Action

I’m looking to connect with a few community members who may be willing to help with a serious student-safety and district-accountability concern.

At this stage, I am trying to stay focused on facts, documentation, proper reporting channels, and public-records requests. I am not looking to spread rumors, make accusations online, or discuss confidential student information.

I would especially appreciate help from anyone with experience in:

- public records / FOIA requests

- education law or school board procedures

- child safety / mandated reporting

- Title IX or student protection policies

- organizing documents and timelines

- taking notes at public meetings

- communicating with state agencies or oversight bodies

The goal is simple: make sure the right questions are asked, records are preserved, proper agencies are notified, and students are protected.

If you have relevant experience or are willing to help quietly and responsibly, please message me directly. Please do not post names, allegations, or student information in the comments.

Haas and Hollymead meeting

I know not everyone will feel like this is that serious, but as my child was one of his victims I ask that if you don't agree, just scroll on.

So I went to the meeting at Hollymead and it was absolutely a disaster. They spoke in circles, were disrespectful (at one point the woman from the school board started yelling at a parent), refused to take accountability on anything, and just refused to answer some questions. I'm worried I made a fool of myself because in front of everyone I confronted McCauley the principal on how he was refusing to take accountability for any of this and he just kind of stared at me.

But I truly believe that Haas needs to be removed. He openly shrugged, rolled his eyes, refused to answer and basically said he doesn't feel like he did anything wrong. Me and other parents brought up multiple times that Haas doesn't reply to emails or phone calls ever and he just kept saying "that's not true." When he would respond, he'd tell us to take it up with McCauley.

I want to figure out how to go about getting the school board to vote on this because he mismanaged this whole thing. He refused to explain why he was allowed to transfer from Woodbrook. He refused to tell anyone what steps they'd take next to protect the kids from this happening again. He admitted that they have no policy for students being alone with adults and that it was "common sense not to be alone." When it was brought up that they've had six months to prepare, but they were acting like this just dropped yesterday he just floundered and stared at everyone. And then he just refused to answer anymore questions.
