[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone tell me why the APs at Watkins are leaving this year? Just because they're getting a new principal or...?[/quote]

Oh God no. Because they have been really horrible. Please refer to the epic Peabody to Watkins thread.[/quote]

Please bring large salt lick with you when you go. Caveat emptor.[/quote]

PP is a censor troll. That thread started what may finally result in a neighborhood school. Save your CHPSO BS for the truly ignorant. Watkins had a lot of really bizarre problems.  Hopefully that's starting to be rectified. As one poster said in the Dump thread, to some it's a crappy school and to others not - put your kid in or don't. If you look at the CAS scores, don't think your kindergarten high performing kid is going to be a merit scholar.[/quote]

What is CHPSO? You are the face of what is wrong with DCUM and the reason that evenhanded and open minded discussions seem impossible.  You're so entrenched in some sort of ideology that you see conspiracies and agendas where there are none.  The M-O of people like you who see the world as black and white is transparent to those of us that are capable of seeing nuance.  You call "troll" when anyone disagrees with you or thinks that you might be wrong.  Save the preemptive name calling for middle school, my friend.  My point, ironically, was to warn that many people on DCUM have agendas and entrenchments that make reason and open-mindedness an impossibility. But you have illustrated my point much better than I ever could have myself, so thanks.

P.S. Please tell me you don't actually believe the hperbolic crap that the DCUM thread "[u]thread started what may finally result in a neighborhood school. [/u] There are many people doing many things to try and improve the schools (and Watkins in particular). But loud mouths with agendas on anonymous boards are probably not chief among the reasons for positive changes.[/quote]
