[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good -- I continue to ask parents to be on the look out for language that sounds compassionate but is really self serving -- e.g. "we cannot overlook the needs of those parents who are too busy working the nightshift to support their families to attend these meetings, therefore...." - and then refer to some obscure data which they don't source and if they did and if you checked it carefully, you'd find it didn't support their conclusion. They are very tricky and are accustomed to getting away with their tricks, especially when it involves manipulating data. Also realize that they are monitoring DCUM. This can help keep them honest or spur them on to more sophisticated means of deception[/quote] +1 I hope DCPS is monitoring this forum and thinking seriously about letting the DME go. It is ridiculous that families, childen and our neighbors are not being listened to by DCPS because we are all too spoiled, too affluent, too engaged, too disinterested, too workaholic, too poor, too uneducated, or too ignorant. They want do develop the ideal school system for the ideal family and it seems that none of us fit the bill. It is depressing. Where is the notion of responsive government![/quote]
