[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]not all ward 8 parents want the same things. Some want to be close to home and others are willing to travel. Some want diversity and some want as many white kids as possible and some want afrocentric education where all the teachers and administrators are black too. Some want arts. Some want high PARCC scores. Some want language immersion or montessori or a traditional school with uniforms and discipline. There are tens of thousands of people in Ward 8. There's not going to a consensus about schools there any more than in any other ward.[/quote] This is OP, and this is what I'm hoping to get at. The Tyler thread paints ward 8 families and African American families with a very broad brush. So here's a chance for people to weigh in with personal opinions if they want to. And as to the next poster who says get out there, excuse me, this is dcum and I don't see why this topic more than any other should be limited to conversations IRL. [/quote]
