BS.

So the HS name was an impediment and distraction, but a daycare isn't?

You people are a joke.

What an absolute straw man.

The daycare doesn't affect your son at all. You're just being a reactionary idiot. Have some self respect and some clutching at straws.

You don't believe environment affects people?

Bless your heart.

Does the noise from the band room also distract your son while he’s in class? What about the smell of food from the cafeteria?

Of course not. Band and lunch should be in a HS. Screaming babies shouldn't be.

It's about core function. Either your priority is to be a school or social services, not both. At some point there are competing priorities and limited resources, including time and attention.

In the long run it saves Alexandria City money by providing care for these children and allowing the student-parents to complete their high school education.

What does that have to do with the name of the school again?

I doubt your son is as much of a snowflake as you are. If he can't function knowing that somewhere, somehow, a baby is getting a diaper changed, I don't think he'd make it far in life. They even have free daycares in gyms and office buildings.

If he can block out side conversations, hallways transitions, bells, announcements, and any other noise that happens during a school day, he's just fine.

I read through this thread and I don’t think it’s been mentioned but many of these kids don’t actually live in Alexandria city. I grew up here and have many friends that went to this school. I went to another high school and I knew a lot of people that actually lived in Maryland.

Congratulations. You truly are an idiot. The message is the problem. Fifteen year olds should not be having kids.

Developing a support network that normalizes that encourages more. Ever hear how building more roads just means more cars? Well, same with daycares in HS. Why not start building daycares in MS? Shit, how about offering daycare to 5th graders. I mean, kids are just gonna have sex, right?

I mean, WTF is your end argument here? That it's wrong to oppose kids having kids?

Do you enjoy having an entire impoverished underclass of uneducated, hyperbreeding, people from broken homes plaguing all the rest of us with crime?

“Fifteen year olds should not be having kids.”

And yet, they have been since time immemorial. You just want it hidden away for your own comfort and convenience. Would you rather the teen students who are parents just drop out of school?

Wut? Rape has been occuring since time immemorial. Does that make it acceptable?

But the teenager who gives birth does not commit a crime by doing so. ACPS has to offer educational opportunities to teenage mothers and it is clearly beneficial to society for such students to have an opportunity to still earn their high school degree. I do not think teenagers are meaningfully less likely to have sex if ACHS does not offer daycare for children of students so I do not think the argument that the daycare services encourage teenage pregnancy carries any weight. I think the opponent here is just being cruel and bringing up the name change issue just brings up further lack of sensitivity.

So if a teenage rape victim gets pregnant and chooses to keep the baby (pro choice means supporting that choice too) or is forced to by her parents, she should be further victimized by being forced to drop out of school and doomed to live in poverty? That's pretty horrible.

Why would anyone actively choose TCW/ACHS if the don’t live in the city?

Residency fraud is rampant in the city and no one cares because half the violators are city staff.

But why, if everyone complains about the schools?

Speculating that PG County Schools are worse?
