[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm very shocked that this Montessori School that claims that it wants to serve underserved children is still locating in gentrification central.

Very shocked.

Shut up.[/quote]

Does it hurt when someone points out your hypocrisy?[/quote]

Not the PP, but it's incredibly irritating when people chime in with sarcasm on a known issue for DC schools. It's hard to find spaces that are affordable and already configured for a school. This is hardly the first school to be located in this location. Hell, it's not even the first Montessori school to be interested in being located in that area. [b]There are plenty of under-served children in and near Ward 4.[/b] A large number of charters end up in Wards 4 and 5 specifically because spaces exist in those areas that can accommodate them. I was not terribly surprised when I learned that that's where they were locating initially. I am even less surprised that they're staying put for another year while they try to find another location.

In any case, your snark isn't funny or helpful.[/quote]

Exactly. And if the school was located EOTR, there wouldn't be a lot of higher SES kids enrolling and the school would have much lower SES diversity, which benefits the underserved children.[/quote]
