[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL at kids being ostracized years from now because parents disagree with boundary studies. I like H so 90% of the community is going to look down on my kid years from now? GMAFB. It's not that deep. Kim, there's people that are dying...[/quote]

It’s not. It was the pro H poster who first suggested that kids would be ostracized, which—I agree—is just wild.

The 90% was in response to that person.

I’m against H. But I’m not cool with calling kids losers or ostracizing kids.

If H is the chosen option, while I don’t agree, I would work toward building a close knit community.[/quote]

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but, even if H passes, wouldn't the current Wootton schools be in the majority? And also wouldn't they move into the building with all four grades while just 9th and 10th graders arrive from Fields Road/Rosemont?

So, if anything, DuFief/SMES/Lakewood/TES/Fallsmead will be setting the culture first and are unlikely to be the ones ostracized...[/quote]

PP here. Very reassuring to hear this viewpoint. I think community building will be more important than ever. I have a lot of concerns about the amount of awfulness being thrown at Dufief right now from the parkway parents. if not for that I would agree with you. [/quote]

Parkway parent here. One that lol was name dropped. Thanks to whoever did that btw. But I don’t have ill will against Dufief or anyone who supports H.

I don’t agree with H and I will continue to advocate against it. But not cool with name calling kids/parents or ostracizing kids/parents. Also not cool implying that other kids are less then, and not cool calling out Dufief or anyone else.

I think most of us parents on both sides are not crazy. We have more in common than not. Whatever the final decision is, I’m all for working to create a positive culture of kids.[/quote]

Dufief mom (same one!) again: 10/10 agree on the last part and the name calling/ostracizing people either as individuals or groups. My concern is that it becomes harder for us to create a positive culture for kids if kids see y'all still trying to make this thing not happen even after a decision has been made (let's say H is voted yes upon). Would be open to chatting more about it for sure since I don't hold any bad feelings against the Parkway Parents (I definitely do have some feelings about some nameless politicians and a few random people more for things they have not done rather than those which they have, lol). Anyway, as TT would say...Onward! Jk, bad joke. [/quote]
