[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are a MV family with two kids in the school at grade levels that won't be replicated by the expansion. We have been with the school a long time and love many of the teachers, the emphasis on social justice, the other families, and, of course, the bilingual curriculum. We strongly oppose the expansion, along with many of the teachers. We understand that being heard does not always lead to the desired result, but believe me when I say we were not heard. Keep in mind this is not the first major decision the administration has made that reversed messaging given to parents and teachers. The best decisions are made after consulting with, or at least considering, the troops on the ground. Going forward, we hope to stay with the school, but cannot guarantee it. One thing we know for sure, however, is that we will no longer donate money to it. We would consider donating to an independent PTA, which at this point does not exist, but will hopefully be created as a positive reaction to this unfortunate choice by the administration. I [/quote] Hard to "listen" when 90%+ of MV parents actions betray their words and their words are thin screen for naked self interest. Langley and myriad other DCPS schools have empty seats. If those seats are good enough for those not fortunate enough to match at MV and that you did not want to match at MV by opposing their expansion, then DCPS is good enough for you. [/quote]
