[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We attended both. You should keep in mind that all of DCPS has the same curriculum. But at a JKLM school, it’s the positive attitude of staff and the bells and whistles that seems to be enjoyed the most (happy teachers who get extra aides, playground extras, great aftercare. chickens!!!). Shepherd has very little in the way of these extras because in my view very little is asked of the parents, it’s not neighborhood school like the JKLMs are, and many teachers have job security that in my view shouldn’t be there. Ultimately we left due to the lack of effective teaching and the misbehavior of kids AND teachers that changed our child. We are not alone - Its been a mostly out of bounds school for many many years, save the prek. Which stinks because it would be great to have a school that serves our neighborhood. I know many families who are trying to change the narrative. More power to them! To me, it seems intractable. [/quote] When did you attend Shepherd? What grade?[/quote]
