[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The main problem with this argument is that it is saying "Our kids should be safe. Somebody else's shouldn't." There was going to be rezoning and someone was going to be unhappy. Why should one group of parents think they are especially privileged that it shouldn't be them? (Rhetorical question....  :roll: )[/quote]

On the other hand it seems whacky that instead of actually fixing the school  now, the board seems to be ok with swapping the kids currently there with kids who are presumed to be more privelage for the sake of equity. Let's punish those racist privelaged  kids.. yup that sounds fair. What's even more screwy is that they ignored the complaints and the conditions of that school for years. Why? [/quote]

Lol! The kids in those schools aren't safe because of... stay with me here... the KIDS IN THOSE SCHOOLS. The "problem" with the "schools" IS the demographics of the children in them. [b]Please stop trying to ship your problems (your children) to other people's neighborhoods[/b].[/quote]

This.  Such a stupid system.[/quote]

Your main issue seems to be that the public school system in Montgomery County is Montgomery County Public Schools, not Clarksburg Public Schools, Germantown Public Schools, etc. But the fact is that it is Montgomery County Public Schools.

And then there's your worldview, in which there are "other people's kids" - [i]those[/i] kids, over there, who are the problem - and "my neighborhood" (where "other people's kids" have no business being). But everyone's entitled to their own worldview.[/quote]
