[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, there are some language immersion programs in DCPS, BUT, they are largely not accessible to OOB families. Hence the demand for these charter schools.[/quote] Great, but that doesn't make charters or language immersion schools "quasi-private." At least in DC, charters are public schools.[/quote] Are you this dense? The schools are private or quasi-private because admission is closed only to people lucky enough to lottery in or have a sibling preference, which still requires lottery. These school feel "private" to all of the parents and kids who can't get entrance. Duh!!!![/quote] By that definition, every DCPS with an OOB waitlist is private. [/quote] And your point is... In case you haven't noticed the people on this site are pretty miffed about the school situation here in the district. OOB kids on waitlist who are languishing in crappy neighborhood schools feel like those in good IB schools are essentially in private. You folks in la-la land need to give it a rest!!! If things were honky sorry DCUM wouldn't exist![/quote] This is an easy one: DCUM anonymous bloviators "miffed about the school situation here in the district" does not = private school OOB kids on waitlists who "are languishing in crappy neighborhood schools feel like those in good IB schools are essentially in private" does not = private school Quasi-private is a useless, made-up word without any specific definition or qualification and does not = private school For the record, people who do not agree with you does not = dense[/quote] Oh my! Now schizos are on here? DCUM is really degrading![/quote] +1 Easy one, eh? Sounds a lot more like a schizo one!!! The weirdos on here are getting wackier by the day!!![/quote] Wow, the last 2 responses do create a new category of posting on DCUM: "Schizo Sock Puppeting!" See, the problem with being crazy is, it's a lot easier to see which posts are yours, including when you "+1" yourself. And btw, yeah, PP who started with "This is an easy one" called it like it is. [/quote] Why do you know so much about "the problems with being crazy"?....Hmmmm[/quote]
