[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody's saying you need to send your kid from AU Park to Benning Terrace for elementary school. But if you chose to live in a gentrifying neighborhood, turning up your nose at the local schools for being "not a good fit" or "not yet flipped" is problematic. [/quote] Ah, okay. So now we're just haggling over the price?[/quote] Are you interested in engaging in this discussion in good faith, or not?[/quote] The question was a serious one. You said "nobody's saying you need to send your kid from AU Park to Benning Terrace" as though it was the most obvious distinction in the world. But it's not obvious at all. This entire dialog is about where (and how) people draw that line. You're begging the question. Sure that article is about SE, but there were exactly the same concerns that were made in areas around Columbia Heights during the school consolidation effort 5-10 years ago. [/quote]
