[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The city has got itself into a pickle. It is managing to attract and engage increasing numbers of middle class families. But these families won't stick around for a crappy education and won't throw their kids at a school that has its main focus on educating the least common denominator to a minimum standard. At the same time, educating the poorest and most disadvantaged to a minimum level (ie no child left behind ) is a vital, necessary and worthy goal. City leaders need smarts and an iron will to.figure out how to do both at the simultaneously. Indeed success in either endeavor makes success in the other easier. Do we have the leadership to figure this out?[/quote] I know this is a rhetorical question but I'll answer it loud and clear. HELLLLL NO! We got rid of the mayor that acknowledged this catch22 and was doing something about it. Now we have a mayor who is interested in fighting 1960s battles and rolling the city back. Good fucking luck.
