That was nice.

Glad my kid isn't there.

Honestly, I wouldn't like my kid to be coached by you.

DP. Can you explain why? What about the PP do you dislike or feel would make him/her a bad coach?

Perfect, then send your child there.

My child goes there. It's fine. These people just like to complain. There are many places with far greater need.

DP, but anyone who would judge a whole school because of "supposedly " the action of one middle schooler, is not worth coaching my kid either.
The anecdote is even off-topic, has nothing to do with the topic. It tells a lot about him

It’s not ok to have a leaking roof that probably is causing mold and no ceiling tiles.

Cool story.

If it was a white kid calling a black or Hispanic person a derogatory name it wouldn't be a cool story would it?

NP. I have never heard an actual live black person (not a fictional character) call a white person cracker. Ever. And I’m almost 50. Sadly, I have heard a lot of black children and adults called the N word by real life white people.

You need to run with a new crowd. I am even older than you and I have NEVER heard a black person called the N word in real life; have only heard the word in literature class and in horrible music. Are you saying that your experience means this never happens? I'm not.

Another NP. You’re lucky if you’ve never seen/heard a black person called the N word. Happened pretty frequently where I grew up, and then you’d be called an N-lover if you tried to intervene on behalf of the victim. I too have never heard someone called a cracker in real life, and I grew up in the deep south. Putting aside the question of whether this anonymous internet stranger is telling the truth, it’s not a term that packs much, if any, punch at all.

Canceling the LGBTQ elective class would contribute $0 to the capital budget.

You are so wrong. You sound like Dr. Smith when he said he would send all 6 of his grandkids there.

Nope, but the taxpayers did pay for Jack Smith to move to a bigger house that could accommodate visits from his 6 grandkids. I bet you he or his grandkids don't live anywhere near Neelsville MS.

No one cared when the ghetto kids from Fox Chapel, Daly, etc. Went there. Why care now???? Cburg brats think they are to good for old Neelsville??

Of course but I guarantee you he wouldn't put his grand kids there.

Why would he "put" his grandchildren in any school? He doesn't make those decisions.

Fact check. The Neelesville kids have been begging since 2015!!! Staff there have been asking for help and yet they've been ignored. I have one staff member tell me she is convinced mcps has been ignoring them because they are a majority minority school with a high Farms rate. This is on mCPS, not the Clarksburg folks you want to demonize.
