[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me break out my tiny violin for the LF parents living in $1.5 million dollar houses who want free preschool. Sorry. The program was never about you. You can pay for PK just like your neighbors across the line in Chevy chase Maryland. Stop being entitled. [/quote]

If you want high-quality public school system, you also want upper middle-income families enrolling in that school system. This is particularly so in DC given the offerings of neighboring jurisdictions. Snark does not good public policy make.[/quote]

So many people on here argue the only way to improve schools is to increase SES and racial diversity. [b]And then they turn around and say a whole group of people can just pay for private.[/b][/quote]

That "whole group of people" has clearly shown their hand in this case: They do not want to do anything to increase SES and racial diversity. In fact, they're staunchly against it. So yes, they can go pay for private if they don't want any brown kids at their school. [/quote]

Exactly this.[/quote]
