[quote=Anonymous]Well, I have just finished reading all of these posts. I think the person who raise paternalism hit the nail on the head. None of us has any idea whether parents will chose the Hebrew charter school or not, or whether parents will think Hebrew is useful or not, or whether these children will use Hebrew later in life or not. We don't even know whether our own children would enjoy Hebrew immersion or not. At most, we know what WE want for our children. Sounds like some us of would chose the Hebrew school and some would not for OUR kids. We really have no right to make generalizations about what other DC parents will want or won't want, or the utility of the Hebrew language for kids and families we don't know. And while I don't consider myself a lazy person for not being involved in the charter school process thus, far. I do think that the application process appears to be vigorous, and that is presumedly why the Charter Board is paid to sit, and make judgments about the community support and financial viability of a given school, and everyone who has posted was free to voice their opinions during the process, so it's unclear why there is so much negativity and judgment when people elected not to participate in the process. I guess it's just part of the standard-issue DC apathy. No wonder we don't have statehood. :( [/quote]
