“For students out there, I want you to know, I hear you; I see you. I know that these policies and regulations don’t always play out the way you need them to. But I want to tell you; I am here to help you... It’s not OK if you feel isolated or not being respected. Our school values you. You are part of our community,” said Fairfax County School Board member Melanie Meren, representing the Hunter Mill District, which is mostly Vienna, Reston, and parts of Herndon.
