If your standards were so high, you wouldn't send your child to a DCPS. I didn't. For that reason: I'm highly educated and my standards are just too high.

All it takes to close the achievement gap is to cater to educated parents??? Forget the poverty and traumas many of the kids come from. They're of no consequence. Just cater to us. Ain't gonna happen cap'n.

Face it: DCPS has zero plan to cater to and beg the 'more educated' parents to come, stay and play. They're too busy with the anger, dysfunction and triage of the masses.

And is this really all because Larla's teacher showed Frozen last week?[/quote][/quote]

As ridiculous as I find PP's attempt at condenscension to be (How awesome can you really be if you send your children to school system you admit is "substandard" with "ineffective" teachers?) I do agree with her that DCPS needs to become much more serious about educating kids instead of serving as local teen hangout spots/babysitting services and manipulating data to make those in leadership look good. HOWEVER, she (and those like her) need to realize that's not going to happen--anytime soon, anyway.

You see, DCPS prides itself on being an urban school system. Becoming that system that pleases and caters to 'highly educated' parents of high SES would make DCPS what???? A suburban school system! If you want suburban schools, head for the hills. [/quote]
