[quote=Anonymous][quote]It seems like such a nice school, but every thread involving Oyster turns into a verbal fistfight. Why?[/quote] Here are my 2 cents The mere existence of Oyster as the sole dual immersion DCPS school in Ward 3, and with a high number of lower income Latino families, sets it apart in these two important ways from the JKLM schools attended by other Ward 3 students. I think this lies at the root of many volleys from both sides. At Oyster there are a few (maybe two or three) IB English dominant mothers who are VERY enthusiastic supporters about the school and take no prisoners when they post on DCUM. I truly love them, but sometimes they raise the decibels a bit too much, even for the accustomed ears of DCUM frequenters. [/quote]
