As to the fight at the 5th grade promotion ceremony? It's not a good look, I'll grant you, but the two families involved were those whose kids were part of the Outdoor Lab incident (which ArlNow also covered). The mother articulated as much at the ceremony so it's common knowledge. I imagine any one of us would have had some choice words (and possibly something more physical) if our child had been intimately assaulted on a school trip, and the school admin put our child's assaulter back in the same classroom with him just a few days later. Bad, bad decisions and bad behavior just seem to occur all the time at the school now. 
As a parent whose kids are either gone or nearly gone, I keep asking myself, "Why is our school, the same elementary school then-Senator Al Gore once had his kids in during the 1990s...so bad? And what can be done to help it?" 
Personally I think leadership change is the only resolution, but I don't think APS has the will or chutzpah to do it. So, in the meantime, meaningless action plans keep being promised that result in no actual change, and our kids continue to suffer.[/quote]
