GDS is the new "but what about her emails?"[/quote]

Would you eat at a restaurant at which the cook considers the food too crappy to eat it himself?

There is *no* justification for a council member or top city admin to send their kids to private school.  Possibly high school in special circumstances, but not before that.[/quote]

As a DCPS parent who has seen what is great and what is not great about DCPS (time in a great Title 1, a not great Title 1, and in a non-Title 1 school), I can think of dozens of justifications for literally anyone sending their kids to private school if they can afford it and it makes the sense for their family. I don't need politicians to martyr themselves to public school in order to vote for them. That doesn't mean I'll vote for McDuffie, but I think this is a dumb argument against him.

Actually this whole conversation makes me really wish Christina Henderson was running for mayor. She is better than either JLG or McDuffie. And she is even a DCPS parent, so could shut down this whole line of argument. I really wish she'd run.[/quote]
