[quote=Anonymous]We have inherited and propagate massive generational wealth disparities in this country and city. So, good education opportunities become the product of rationing. Until this dynamic changes, we will have inequities. Is anyone surprised by the fact that everyone wants the best for their child? The parents, to the extent that their objections are performance and not racially based, should not be chided for wanting their child to get the best education. It is the rationing part that sets up this poisonous dynamic. The subject is so toxic, especially in DC (Exhibit #1 - this message board), that most parents can't agree on the what the problems actually are, let alone changes that might actually improve outcomes for some without worsening (perceived) outcomes for others. Sigh... :( [/quote]
