[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Janney is a little different than other DCPS schools, even other NW schools. It is much more of a parent club. I've heard this from parents who later moved their kids to private and were surprised to see that parents could not influence school decisions as much as they were able to at Janney. That's one reason, I did not send my children there. I just felt that too many stay at home moms were running the show. I want real educators.[/quote] I've been at Janney for many years now, and this is simply not true. In fact, the vast majority of kids, in my experience, have both parents working. Many parents have alternative work schedules, so they are able to do pick-up, etc., but they simply do not have the time or interest to "run the show," as you suggest. [/quote]
