[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some people genuinely want to believe in and support neighborhood/community schools.  They are aware of the problem that [b]gentrifiers in urban neighborhoods [/b]statistically largely opt for private and charter schools, irrespective or the underlying quality of the neighborhood public schools.  Does not really matter if it is Oakland, New York, or DC.  DCPS could do a lot more to support advanced middle school coursework.  But that is another issue.  There are families in our neighborhood who care a lot about academics but who may also feel some moral imperative to attend the nearby public school.[/quote]

Oh, you mean the almost 20% population increase since in the last 25 years that reversed DCPS closures all over DC? You mean the projected population increases that stopped DC from continuing to sell off surplus schools?

You are like the idiots in my neighborhood who speak about the good old days of the crack epidemic before the gentrifiers moved in. Don't like it? LEAVE!  [/quote]
