[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SWS parents must have better things to worry about. The middling academics are the real problem, not the whiteness. It's not a lily white school, not by a long shot. Hill DCPS ES parents who pay $350/month for Mathnasium get strong math instruction. Hill DCPS ES parents who pay writing top tutors get strong writing instruction. If SWS focused far more on academics and less on fun and inclusion, the families would be much better off. These observations come from a POC (parent of color) whose had kids have percolated in DCPS schools for a decade. We supplemented so much post Covid in the upper grades that we might as well have paid for St. Peter.[/quote] I don’t doubt this is true if SWS, but isn’t the need to supplement (and the increasing ease of doing so) just a common fact of UMC life?
