[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually, I have it directly from families who have switched from Catholic to DCPS and vice versa ( and one who went from DCPS to Catholic to DCPS) that the good DCPS ES are better than the Catholic in their neighborhood. [/quote] PP, you are a troll and obviously not a Catholic school "alum.". Additionally, where I live, kids get attacked in DCPS. That just doesn't happen in Catholic schools and many charter schools that covet safety, and that's why people want choice. Why don't you move EotP out of your limo-liberal neighborhood and tell me just how great DCPS is? The Washington Post doesn't handedly endorse vouchers and charters for nothing. Only DCPS refuses to get the message.[/quote] 1. Just because we disagree and others' experience is different from yours and the people you know does not make me a troll. 2. I didn't actually say where I live, did I? I could be in Philly for all you know, so any EOTP/WOTP prejudices in this conversation are your own. 3. I did not say this applies across the board to all DCPS schools or to all Catholics, just injecting a sense of perspective. Not all Catholics are better than all DCPS. 4. Where do you propose to put all those kids who don't make it in your safe charter or have the extra money needed beyond the voucher for the local Catholic - if they have space? DCPS? And if DCPS is no longer there, where do those kids go? 5. Nineteen years of Catholic school, in DC and other places, Jesuit, Dominican, IHMs, and I have seen it all. Your thoughts?[/quote]
