Are you trying to compare the threats that the Obamas face to Jimmy Carter - are you for real? I just read somewhere that the threats against Obama are 400% more than the previous President. Can't compare the two. I was raised here and remember when Amy Carter went to public - her first day was a zoo, even by 70s standards. And if I am not mistaken she ended up going to private anyway, Holton Arms I think. I am not saying that the teacher policies should apply to the Obamas or the Fentys I think they should be able to go wherever they want. But if I am reading the previous posts correctly and we want everyone to be treated the same then teachers should lose their ability to take slots that should go to those who have gone through the process and procedures outlined by DCPS. This was from DCUM a few years back. Apparently I am not the only person who believes this to be true. |

Emily Henochowicz, recently maimed by the IDF, went to Holton Arms in Bethesda, Maryland. There may literally be no high school in the U.S. that would be worse from the Israeli government's perspective. Holton Arms is a private all-girls school where the richest members of the U.S. political elite send their daughters. Alumnae include Jacqueline Kennedy, Susan Ford (daughter of Gerald), Amy Carter, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and many more.
I found this. |
| Does anyone have picture of from HA? |
Is this a serious post? Yeah, I'm sure the Israeli cabinet and Knesset spend many, many hours debating how to deal with the scourge of Holton Arms. Amt Carter didn't go there, by the way. But you are right that the graduation of Julia Louis-Dreyfus put HA on the geopolitical map. |

Ummm-- this is crazy. There are tons of very rich Jewish girls at Holton. Wonder Woman's kid went there and is Jewish as are many other super rich Jewish girls there.
|
| OMG. Get a life people. Really? |
| How about she graduated FROM Holton Arms. I really hate that people leave out the preposition. You graduate FROM a school, you don't graduate a school. Ridiculous. |
| I only attended the high school I graduated from for 2 years. I consider myself an alum of that school. |
Please name a Holton parent or two that is part of the political elite. There aren't any in my daughter's class. I only know of one deputy something or other whose daughter attends. |
This quote was to settle the debate about Amy Carter, however, I am a parent at the school and I would never dream of putting that kind of current info on a public forum. Trust me, there have been plenty and there are a few now. They may not be in your DD's class but they are there. |
| I thought Amy Carter went to public school, Stevens to be exact. I'm fairly certain of it. |
| Yes she did go to Stevens but she finished at Holton Arms. Public school was a disaster for her and she eventually went private. |
| There are several, very prominent mothers at the school -- all in their own right, not just someone's wife or daughter. Now that I think about it, there are probably more prominent mothers than fathers. |
As some of us have noted repeatedly, this is simply not true. Amy Carter did not attend Holton. You are just perpetuating an urban myth. Plus, note that Jimmy Carter was long gone from Washington before Amy "finished" school. |
And THAT is what it's really all about. Great role models for Holton girls. |
