[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously, folks, look inward.  The huge majority of posts on the DC public school pages talk incessantly of the (silly-named) JKLM schools and disparage anything else.  And when a poster talks about, say, buying in Logan or Shaw you invariably hear "but where are your kids going to go to school?" "Good luck with that! (snark)"

This is an extraordinarily elitist forum of the worst kind, where NIMBYism really and truly rules the day.  It's basically "sure, I'm a Democrat and I'm liberal, and the hell with Trump, but there's no way I'm going to experiment with education with MY kid!"

It's pathetic.

(BTW I am a white parent with kids in a "hidden gem" DC public school that I'm not going to mention here.  I don't want any of you sending your kids there!)[/quote]

+1.

I wonder if we go to the same school.

Did we talk about this on Saturday in the park?[/quote]

Ha ha, nope.  Still good to new there are kindred spirits out there.[/quote]

That is good to know.  There are more of us out there than shown on DCUM.[/quote]

But you *are* here.

Don’t worry. We won’t tell. [/quote]
