[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, #1 is exactly what is fucked up about DCPS.  They already get millions in taxpayer dollars a year to put toward leadership and resources and staff and fancy expensive consultants, so that we as parents as unpaid volunteer amateur hacks shouldn't even have to be in the mix to tell them what's needed and what's right and wrong.

But sadly it just speaks to millions of dollars wasted and some fundamental problems in the system, while parents and students alike are stuck trying to push the boulder up the mountain like Sisyphus.  Why should we give a damn if those running the school system don't seem to listen or give a damn?

This is why DCPS still has a huge credibility problem with many families.  [b]It's a major liability to the city[/b].[/quote]

But it's not really.  There are plenty of DINK couples and wealthy singles who don't care about school quality that are ready to move in and replace us.  We all bought into a school system that has been broken for years, it's really up to the parents if we want to see improvement in schools.  [/quote]
