[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No good answers people. The day those schools improve is the day the wrecking ball comes to Barcroft Apartments. Fvcking albatross.[/quote] I keep hearing that the development rights have been sold to given away, so they aren't going anywhere.[/quote] My point exactly [/quote] As someone whose children actually goes to school with kids from these apartments I find all of these comments in this thread and others incredibly insensitive and hateful. Do you think it's the fault of those children or families that they h ave fewer resources or are new to the country? Should we simply refuse to educate or house economically disadvantaged children? These are human beings, not pawns or numbers or test scores. And many of them are smart and motivated and great peers.[/quote] I’m never impressed by people who care about their politics than their own kid’s education. That complex is 55 acres of poverty, and a huge obstacle to well ingrated schools. No is suggesting humans aren’t living in those buildings. We are suggesting that 55 acres and 1,000’s of units ( and 100’s more planned) of 100% low income population is unbelievably bad policy. [/quote]
