[quote=Anonymous]I find his post somewhat whiny. I did very well at college because I was well prepared and because I worked incredibly hard. When I did struggle in a class, I never thought, "My high school failed me." He doesn't talk about one teacher who encouraged him or supported his learning. I had plenty of teachers treat me poorly, but I had many who were supportive of me. That is life. I work in a workplace with a lot of supportive people and some real jerks. I know kids who've graduated from DCPS who have done incredible well at top colleges. Feeling responsible for my own success helps me continue to succeed. It is a little disapointing that Ceasar Chavez didn't better prepare him. I've heard some promising stuff about that school.[/quote]
