[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bonkers thread. I’ve never rooted against people so hard as I do these parents. (And I generally support wiggle room.) they’re really saying the quiet part out loud. I’m sure they’ll get their way in the end, unfortunately.[/quote] These parents think they can always get what they want, always have the system bend to their needs, etc. These are those parents that want DCPS to have a strict absence policy for kids in other wards but want their kids to be excused for their trips to Paris because it’s educational. [/quote] A trip to Paris is educational. The fastest way to a defunded department of education is to not show an understanding of this. Taking away someone’s trip to Paris gets you nothing, and then gets what you have taken away.[/quote] How many public middle schools in the district are offering opportunities for overseas trips to Paris or elsewhere? Certainly not our DCPS MS.[/quote] So other kids shouldn’t have family trips to Paris, because your child’s middle school doesn’t offer it? You know they’re going to get rid of differentiated math and other advanced courses in top publics next.[/quote]
