[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have a problem with this, but they should have added a line saying all students are welcome. I know from experience that people get upset when you focus. I ran a woman's group at work for years. Females have different challenges in the work place and we focused on those. One man complained and wanted us to end it, so I added that anyone can join. If a man wants to hear about breast feeding at the office or the glass ceiling they should feel free to join. A DCPS student who does not fit the focus group may find that nothing applies to them, but they should be invited. [/quote] I agree with this. It's not the event itself, but they should make it clear all students are welcomed (assuming they are). If it's going to be really targeted at a particular group and others aren't welcome, it might make more sense for it to just be offered by the city, say through the library system or something, rather than the public school.
