Nashvillian. Interested in Nashville politics, roller derby, reading, drinking strong black tea all day long. Got a new job so the disclaimer: opinions are my own, not my employer's, obviously.
I think there is far more wrong with this effort than I'venamed above. MNPS isn't taking this seriously. The answers are predetermined and swayed by popular opinion and adult convenience rather than science. Disappointing but not surprising.

MNPS has claimed transport issues as the reason to ignore science on start times. But the "How does your child get to school?" question doesn't include "student drives themselves." Later HS start times lower teen accident rates. Important missing info due to poor survey construction.

Good forbid you go out of town and leave your car. Or end up in the hospital and leave your car.
In Boston we were ticketed for signs that were put up AFTER we parked the day before and were only not towed because we happened to walk out there as they were towing others. Coming to Nashville soon.

The doctor kept telling me my oldest would be "6 pounds at the most." She was 8lbs 10 oz. The doctor was shocked. I was 95 pounds when I got pregnant with her.

My son was large for gestational age and had a big head. I was size zero when I got pregnant. No one offered me anything. I would have taken recognition. The ped just sounded very concerned and I responded unbothered, "Have you seen his dad's head?"

We did walk often when they were younger and we were near Stanford Montessori.

Years ago I memorized this in the NIV and I think it rolls better off the tongue:
"It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God – that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption."
Is NRSVUE making it clucky to remove gendered language for God?

Seems like one of those things that could be a pedulum swing too far in either direction. Which extreme is more tempting varies by the person.

Most of the NA beers are good except Blue Moon. Grabbed it at a bar the other day and regreted it on first sip.

It gets worse. Water comes back on after 19 hours and one of the kids unknowingly left the bidet on. Their bathroom flooded and now the ceiling in the downstairs dinjng room is wreaked. Thank you Metro Water. 😭
