[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP again but calling this situation ‘extremely inconvenient’ is an indication of how truly lucky you are in life.  Please take in that fact.  I can give you a lot of other scenarios that are actually ‘extremely inconvenient’ as a comparison.[/quote]

Seriously.  My kids' ward 5 charter is 15 minutes away from my home so I spend an hour a day driving my kids there and picking them up.  And I'm quite grateful for the privilege since my zoned school is one of the worst in the city.

I certainly don't consider the driving I do "extremely inconvenient."  I'm grateful to do it because my previous drive to an inferior charter was 25 minutes each way.

The way I see it, Bowser caters far too much to the WOTP crowd.  Not too little.

Look at their streets compared to the ones in my neighborhood.  
Their policing.  
Trash pick up at the Rec centers on that side of the park.  
Maintenance of the swimming pools WOTP vs EOTP.  The list goes on.

I'm all for Bowser calling out the casual racism that rules the thoughts of many WOTP.

You chose to go to a charter. You could go to your inbound school which would be closer. But you didn’t choose your inbound?  Hmmm…aren’t you perpetuating the same problems you accuse WOTP of doing…segregating yourself from people you don’t want to be educated with? [/quote]
