[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While Deputy Mayor for Education Paul Kihn keeps our kids out of the classroom, because it is supposedly unsafe, he sends his own kids to Washington International School, which has been open for months

Who cares? None of your business stop judging.

You have kids it is your responsibility to educate them period. You don't like DC schools move or work to fix. [/quote]

You don't believe that public officials should be held accountable and to certain standards. Yikes.[/quote]

[b]DP.  Standards of morality, ethics, and competence -- yes.  But sending his kid to private school doesn't contradict any of these.  What he does for his family in terms of picking schools is his business.  What he does for DCPS is the public's business.

Plenty of qualified people might not have school age kids; would you ding them as well?  Or what happens if someone's kid has a special need or some other factor that would be better addressed by a private?  Are we going to say someone has to forgo doing what they believe is right for their kid to allow them the honor of trying to work for DCPS?  That seems backwards to me.[/b][/quote]

You don't see any contradiction when Paul Kihn says public schools can't open because of coronavirus, even though his own kids' school never closed? [/quote]
