[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^Ahhh, now I get it.  You can't question whether HFA may be hurting more advanced students because that might suggest you as a parent have done your dc some disservice when it comes to her education.   No reason to have such a chip on your shoulder.  However, please don't attempt to stomp out any public discourse for those that don't just buy the party line and actually question what is going on regarding the education of our dc's.  Its not personal to you and at the end of the day, we are all parents seeking to do the best for our children.

DP. Please stop. I’m the white parent of a possible future Wilson student, and the impression you and the other parents arguing against HFA on this thread are giving is of a student cohort with intellectually unsophisticated, ignorant and obsessive parents, which is frankly a little worrying. I assume most Wilson parents are not like this, but the most vocal ones seem to be. [b]If your primary concern is that your child be in classes with other smart kids from educated families, you are doing him or her absolutely no favors, because kids from families like that are not going to want their child in a school where the other parents are like you.[/quote][/b]

I’d be happy to have my kid in PP’s kid’s class.  I’ve got an scarily smart child, and I expect DCPS to meet his need for challenge and acceleration, the same as all students’ needs should be met.[/quote]
