[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No matter what you claim, I'm not interested in furthering the advantages of the most advantaged. What I am discouraged by is how this most noble of goals: universal preschool choices that augment school readiness for all of DC's kids has degenerated into a ridiculous lottery scrum that has parents sitting out on the sidewalks all night. That is siphoning off students into "quasi-private" academies. That is pushing all kids into full day school when some still need two-hour naps, that is resulting in kids and parents who drive and metro for hours every day, and that is creating a paranoid culture where we suspect our classmates of being address cheaters. I'll trust you when you say that boats are being lifted and I'm happy for that, but don't shout me down as selfish when I think there must be a better way of implementing "school choice."[/quote] This is 15:14 and i agree with you 100 percent. Well put. [/quote]
