[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, factual and pertinent information about Watkins has come directly from this forum.  I have discovered particular events reported here that the administration never reported to parents and teachers.  What appeared to be there rumor mill, actually has quite a bit of truth.  The letter written on page 91 was the best synopsis of the situation from an AA parent's point of view.  Although I may not agree with the summary, it was a very crucial document.  Apparently, this document has been sent to DCPS leaders.  I would not have known that this group of stakeholders has joined forces in their quest to get answers.

I have seen all kinds of crap on this forum and others.  Some of it is downright stupid; however, it puts life into perspective.  Not everyone will agree with me or my issues.  There are very different sides to this coin.  Some of the comments are painful, but they are reality and reflect what parents are seeking for the neighborhood school.

Regarding the personal information, if links are provided from public websites, that's fair game.  Social networking can be helpful and hurtful.  If you do not want people to know your work history, keep it private.  My resume is not open to every eye on the internet. I do not believe that anyone has provided information that is not publicly available.  Ms. Clemens offered her phone number on a site that 5600 people have access to, Linkedin is easily accessible, and other contact information is available on the public Cluster website.  I do not have a problem with the removal of over-the-top comments.  One of mine was deleted and I understood why, sorry.  Those reminders of the "rules" are helpful.  People should report those comments that break the code of conduct for DCUM.

Also, it would be rather easy for another forum to pop up somewhere else.  This forum has been extremely helpful in determining what steps have been taken and what steps are still needed.  The long list of teachers leaving Watkins is upsetting, but it is better to know now than in August when transferring is much more cumbersome.  Those 99 pages are road maps to the problem and the probably the solution.  Besides, DCUM has gained thousands of new fans as a result.  If most of us play nice, give it another try. [/quote]
