[quote=Anonymous]20:13, I'd agree with most of what you write, except for the bashing of teachers--especially ugly with the racist overtones too. Ick. Yes, we've got one in private now for HS and the others will head that way as well. Elementary school can be done and done pretty well in DC, public or PCS. Middle school is where the wheels come off. Unlike you, I don't blame the teachers. I'd blame the poverty. I guess you could blame the craptacular parenting too, but that is, fundamentally a poverty issue. The absolute best teacher any of my children had was at a low-income DCPS. My private school kid has some terrific teachers right now, but those same teachers would get eaten for lunch in Ward 8. [/quote]
