[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought recess time was fixed, it seems like at least for the preschoolers the day is on a minute by minute schedule.

Can't the gentrifiers bring in some outerwear?  [/quote]

If the school social worker says that's wanted and needed and appropriate -- maybe. But there are only about 10% higher SES families at a school live Cleveland, and most are gone by K or 1st. The population that stays through fifth is kinda over the know it all white women coming in and telling them how to do behave / what to wear / how to live in most parts of the city.

Another way of looking at it is that the white women with high expectations who are raising academically successful children are so over banging their heads against the wall in order to demonstrate what a high-achieving academic environment looks like.  They want it for their children and are sharing the benefits with others.

So they leave and take their expertise with them.  And not surprisingly, the schools go downhill.[/quote]

wow. ok. well, I refer everyone back to the "is this forum racist" thread. [/quote]
