[quote=Anonymous]Wanted to upfront this having seen it on a different thread - black middle class parents saying that white parents are getting issues raised and resolved with DCPS management in ways that aren't happening for black families. I'm a white person and I raise issues to my school sometimes. I definitely feel like sometimes we get catered to (suspect it, but don't have points of reference to prove it). What is it that black parents want, that they feel like they can't get out of DCPS, that white parents seem to be able to ask for and get? Are they requests for the same things or different things? I know there are going to be some similarities and differences, e.g., I've heard about disciplinary or bullying issues and lumping people together....but I wanted to hear it from others, not guess at what I think might be the concerns. So - what are the asks, etc.? that don't get addressed?[/quote]
