[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SP parent here. Thanks for those suggestions and ugh I see people worrying about the home values so much in the community Facebook group. I have to laugh with the PP who mocked the $600k chartwell split level home, it is absolutely true and a way to mask racism in this area. It has also driven me nuts this week seeing how little discourse there was on this incident compared to other menial topics. [/quote]

I’m PP who made the $600k Chartwell house comment. Don’t feel bad about living in SP or feel that you can’t send your kids to public schools there. I’m from Bethesda and graduated from Walt Whitman HS, and we weren’t all that much better tbh.

There’s plenty of nice kids and families in SPHS. While I do believe there is a cultural issue in the area, it’s wrong to say everyone in SP is this way or that all the kids behave this way. The student newspaper condemned this incident far better than the school’s principal did, which says a lot. This is largely an adults failing to be adults problem. This incident doesn’t mean SPHS is full of bad or mean kids or that all SP families are racist.

Work hard, be an informed citizen, and vote. Find like minded families, there’s plenty in SP and it is becoming more progressive. Hopefully one day, SP will be a place where people from all racial backgrounds will want to raise their families. [/quote]
