[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think unless you also live in Columbia Heights and see how we are being used as pawns by both sides it is hard to understand why a lot of us are frustrated. Besides the other talking points Henry, understandably, wants to keep our PUs because we provide a lot of their diversity. Yet we are needed by Drew to provide a different type of diversity.

Btw, the worst thing I saw anyone say on those two AEM threads is “Don’t use my children as your social engineering experiment.” Would I have said it, no. That poster definitely shouldn’t have been so defensive but this is a tough situation for all of us who will potentially be moved (not just Henry parents). [/quote]

But not many people from CH are speaking up. all I've seen is one poster on here who said that would rather move than send their kids to drew, the social Engineering comment on AEM. The poster on AEM who when asked by someone why they didn't want to send their kid to Drew replied with "I'd rather stay with Henry" and the matching tee shirts at the meeting at Kenmore. It doesn't make you all look good.

Abingdon students had to go to school during renovations. They had gym in a trailer. I get the point that henry parents are making regarding the new schools but Abingdon parents have a similar argument. [/quote]
