[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many educators in HRCs feel the same way as Martel. They're in education to help poor minority kids succeed. If those kids do not get access to the better schools the achievement gap will grow. The poor families' hope is on a charter since they can't afford Wotp. When a white middle class kid takes a spot, there is palpable disappointment whether you realize it or not.[/quote] Wait. What? That's obscene. "when a white middle class kid TAKES a spot". FU. White kids have as much right to a quality public education and any other kid. Thats racist and inflammatory in the extreme and not worthy of any educator I know. [/quote] +1 why don't these educators with an interest in only teaching poor minority kids go straight to the source and teach in a DCPS school EOTR? [/quote] I agree that white ks and rich kids, whatever background, also have a right to free and public and quality education. Come to think of it, all kids do..the more hgh quality public and public charter, the more spots for everyone. [/quote]
