[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To all you nay-sayers.  Just kiss my grits!!! It amazes me that many of tou try to be smug and sarcastic on these posts.  I am glad that I make your insignificant lives livelier.  Whoop de doo!!! For the reader who couldn't see that a poster wanted to denounce Eastern's accomplishment, needs a life.

Competition brings customers and if being awarded second place for improving reading for students is a problem.  Then you're the type of customer that I wish would keep on moving.

It is amazing when a school is labeled as being the worst; it was destined poor Eastern.  Here it is Eastern, improving without the influx of white parents and now its not worthy.  Tell me, what sock-puppet wouldn't take offense to some bullshit like this new found division.  See, I didn't say racism.  I will use the race card for future posting.[/q

You are reading these posts with a huge chip on your shoulder and it is making you nuts.  People are sincerely glad that Eastern is making progress with its remedial reading program.  That is super news and means a better future for those students.  It means something is going right after a lot of things going wrong.

At the same time, understand that news like this doesnt inspire families who have kids who did get a proper elementary/middle education to want to sign up immediately.  When Eastern can start listing its college admissions and it looks great, you will see some enthusiasm among these families.   In the meantime, why is it so threatening that these families want a school where there will be appropriate levels of challenge and a sizeable peer group of kids at a similar level of academic acheivement.  Do you really believe that means everyonebelse will be left behind?  Or could it possibly mean a mire robust and wealthy and healthy school system overall that would serve all kids better, especially before they get to high school.[/quote]
