[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of immigrant families at CHEC who push their kids and care more about academic success than most of the people posting on DCUM (many of whom want a lot of recess and expeditions and socioemotional skillbuilding and figure their kids will read eventually since they're read to a lot). The parents may not all speak English well or have gone very far in school, but a lot of them took huge personal risks and chose to live difficult lives in order for their kids to finish high school, go to college, and have it easier than prior generations.[/quote] And it's not only "immigrant families." I posted earlier about a lady I just met, lifelong DC resident, who sends her daughter all the way to CHEC from Ward 7. Sounds like CHEC is doing great things, that's fantastic! [/quote]
