[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will never get anywhere with an us vs them mentality. [/quote]

That’s how it’s always been as the divide is huge.  We are paying for a much better education for some kids while others go without.  [/quote]

That is simply not true. If you moved the population of Whitman into Kennedy’s building with their existing teachers/classes/schedules, the kids would still flourish due to their home life. The better education you seek is right in your school. Without the countywide magnets to pull kids out, each school will have a healthy group of high achievers who can track together. MCPS cannot change the demographics of the county and people from all areas of the county have prioritized shorter commutes to school, so the schools are set. If you don’t like the peers at your child’s school that is a YOU problem and not an MCPS problem. Or you can move. Nobody really cares. Schools choice for the DCC (and only the DCC) is a silly thing to fight for.[/quote]

The petition asks to slow the regional program implementation and does not ask to keep the DCC and only for the DCC.

The petition very much advocates for school choice for the DCC.[/quote]
