[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Calling anyone with ambivalence about sending their kids to SH a racist is not the most persuasive argument for encouraging IB enrollment, but it's certainly the most predictable on DCUM.[/quote]

+100. Who isn't at least a little racist around here?

The strident LT boosters don't seem to want to boost IB enrollment at SH as much as to screen for the like-minded. So glad we're at an ES that's already turned in the upper grades, so we don't have to walk on eggshells around name callers.[/quote]

What posts are you reading? Seriously? What does that even mean? LT is a DCPS school with an IB catchment area. There is no choosing or excluding those kids. And no one on this board has argued for that. Furthermore no one is arguing IB isn't good; what we've argued is kids re-enrolling into MS is an essential first step when the school from which they rise has good scores and good culture. Were your reading comprehension skills at grade level you would have noticed that the[b] only people on this board that have argued for homogeneity are Brent and SWS families[/b]...and they did it openly and proudly. Also, ES that have improved in the upper grades on the Hill have scores the same or less good than LT...the very school whose boosters you misunderstand. But yet again, there you go making my point for me. You set out that you are in an ES that has improved in the upper grades and while you are incapable of seeing that LT has as well. But it does have brown people and poors, as you point out. So it can't really have turned I guess.

sorry . . . just have to completely call BS on this.  You obviously know NOTHING about either school community.[/quote]
