Fairfax County’s public school leadership is using “equal outcomes” and “equity” measures to hide low performance among its students, particularly the students who are learning English.

As a result of the Biden administration’s porous southern border policy, coupled with Fairfax County’s sanctuary policy that passed in January 2021, our local school district is flooded with newly arrived multilanguage learners, formerly labeled English language learners. In the 2023-2024 academic year, multilanguage learners accounted for 26.5% of the overall student population.
