[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're not sexist. If you are as obnoxious and myopic as the crazy CR mom, we feel sorry for the principal at your school too. [/quote] Not PP, but wow, just wow....I don't have a kid at Colvin Run, but I have friends at the school and am well aware of what a toxic environment it has become. I get that your kid's not affected, PP, but how about a little sympathy? After all, the only reason Colvin Run is in this position is that the school's base parents were either in the dark that their school was going to become a dumping ground for AAP spillover in the older grades or didn't whine and lobby as hard to get their way as the parents at Haycock, Louise Archer and some of the surrounding schools in McLean and Vienna. Colvin Run, like Lemon Road, were losers in the battle to ease overcrowding at Haycock and Louise Archer. [/quote] Thankfully, it will be better in 6 months when the 6th graders graduate. [/quote] It's hard to be sympathetic towards someone who takes a problem in one grade at one school (which has been corrected in the lower grades, btw) and uses is as a springboard for insisting, 24/7 and in every thread in this forum, that AAP is inherently evil-- when in fact, her experience (while frustrating and a legitimate cause for concern) simply does not reflect what is going on in most AAP Centers. And honestly, some of us are pissed by this poster hijacking every single threat to bitch about issues in CR's 6th grade (and possibly the 6th grades in a couple of other schools, like GBW), making it impossible for people with kids in AAP or applying for AAP to discuss anything else. Now if she started a "why the situation at CR is intolerable" thread to air her grievances, I don't think anyone would have a problem. [/quote]
