[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that people that "fight" over DCPS and DCPCS either have very young kids or really just don't understand the history of public and charter schools in this city. Having lived here a long time - I just dismiss them as being young and probably moving to MD or VA after K anyway. [/quote] This. Or, they'll move to my neighborhood in upper NW when they mature a little and have their A-Ha moment about the relative importance of given amenities. At some point, Yelping about craft cocktails gives way.[/quote] Both of your comments illustrate why the "old guard" is often out of touch with new reality. We may not have been in DC as long as you, but our kids are well past K and we have no intention of leaving public schools in DC, nor of moving to upper NW or MD or VA. And we know many families like us, who are digging in and some of us are already in public middle schools and high schools in DC. I do love a good craft cocktail, but no, never come to DCUM to discuss them. Abundant discussions on DC schools though, and that isn't changing any time soon.[/quote]
