[quote=Anonymous]We stretch and make private a reality for our kids because the education they were receiving at public school was a sad, sad joke. The monthly checks hurt, but we value education and it’s been wonderful to see how our kids are growing and loving learning now. As for social justice—our school does a good job teaching empathy and kindness, but has not crossed into what people might describe as “woke” a la GDS. There’s a strong emphasis on community service, there’s a sizable number of kids receiving aid, and it’s a warm and supportive environment. Yea, it’s a bubble but it’s a bubble where my kids are learning to be decent humans and getting an education. I’m okay with not participating in the DCPS cluster F just because some poster thinks we should. [/quote]
