[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Over the past 12 months, the big PA initiatives I can think of were constructing the school's playground and holding administrators' feet to the fire [b]over bullying[/b]. [quote] What's the deal with the bullying? I've heard rumors, and read the odd snippet on DCUMB, but that's it. I'm a Chinese immigrant- we have a spot but haven't taken it. As a kid, I attended a majority AA ES where kids called me "chink" almost every day, accompanied by the dreaded corner-of-eyes pulling gesture. After my family complained, through an interpreter, the bullying accelerated. My Caucasian spouse claims that we have no reason to think our DC would be bullied at YY, but I'm not convinced - kids are cruel, Chinese kids are a very small minority, and there isn't an Asian administrator to talk to, an authority figure who may have had similar experiences (perhaps w/white or Hispanic kids).
