[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not me, but someone I know. She and her husband bought a SF house in Silver Spring more than 10 years ago, with one toddler at the time. Now she has two children nearing high school age, and the public school have gone downhill beyond belief. Just TERRIBLE. Scores far below the county average, with high ESOL and FARM rates, and at least a third certainly illegal. They can't afford private school, and can't afford a SF house in a better school district. They are seriously considering selling their house (which is really nice and in great shape) and buying an older townhouse in Bethesda for the same money. [/quote] Oh look it's the anti-SS poster from the real estate and MD schools thread whose migrated over into the politics forum. Hi SS-hater poster! We see you![/quote] Nope. That's someone else. I never to to the real estate forum. Are you upset because I pointed out a negative impact of illegal immigration? [/quote] No I am rolling my eyes at someone who doesn't know Silver Spring very well. Love our vibrant diverse neighorhood and our vibrant diverse schools. My kids regularly test in the 96-99% on all standardized tests, sorry to burst your bubble! But we're happy people like you don't want to live here. Sorry Jeff, I'll stop after this one so as not to derail thread.[/quote] I know Silver Soring very well. I grew up there, and when I went, the schools were great. Now they are unrecognizable, at least the one my friend's kids are fated to attend. It is the lowest scoring school in the county. You can pretend it's all fine and dandy, but the influx of poor, non-Engkish speaking illegal immigrants has not been without a serious negative impact. [/quote] Learn to deal with it. Or just keep going to Trump rallies wearing your MAGA hat.[/quote]
