[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re schools---if you care about public schools in DC, then I would suggest focusing on the fact that JLG is anti-charter. Charters have enabled families to remain in the DCPS system for the last 20 years when previously middle class families either avoided DC public schools entirely or else bailed for suburbs or privates after elementary schools. JLG is beholden to teachers' unions---you know, the folks who made DC kids miss years of in person school during Covid for far longer than necessary and have been opposed to charters. I care much more about JLG's anti-charter attitude than I do about where Kenyan sends his kids to school.[/quote] Great point. Decent charters enable middle and upper middle class folks who are zoned for dire middle and high schools and would otherwise decamp to the burbs to stay in the city. Given our financial situation, DC needs those families now more than ever.[/quote]
