[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my child still needed public school, I would probably leave. That's a HUGE statement for me to make. I'm a militant urbanist. But I do think numerous public safety and quality of life issues, coupled with a just incomprehensible ideological shift in the city government, are becoming problems. If it will not be possible for middle-income families to set their kids up in schools that will help their kids reach their full potential instead of artificially depressing the pace of instruction for them, then that's a serious line crossed. Thank goodness my kids have gotten through DCPS already.[/quote] You’ve summed up the state of the schools well, but that is happening nationally. And it is de rigueur all over the DMV. This is why many so many kids in the burbs are now in private schools. Local public school enrollment is falling. [/quote]
