[quote=Anonymous]While I see the validity of what the more condescending and arrogant sounding folks are trying to communicate, I look at the school more in terms of what I like about it and the potential it has.  Sure, there are problems.  What school doesn't have them?  I don't think the school is blind to them and I don't believe that every parent who raises an issue is shouted into submission.  I never have been, anyway.  I don't see the 2 tiered lottery working but hopefully outreach will continue.  It's a pretty new school and is just now settling into a new location which also presents many challenges and opportunities.  I sort of question the knowledge of folks who seem to believe that DC's Chinese community are all living in Chinatown.  I'm not sure that DC demographics bear that out.  I don't have a nifty slogan that can be put on a 2-sided T-shirt in English and Chinese but I would say apply to the school if you want an engaging educational environment for your DC.  If you want the school to change for the better stay involved and work at it just like at any other school.  If you want a perfect school where parents use words like "rigor" regularly then go private and voice your complaints on the "Private and Independent School" forum.  People are much less opinionated and/or judgmental over there :wink:
