[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Possibly moving to Ft. McNair for a year. Kids are in private now, but we can't afford that in DC. DH's colleagues have said we should avoid DCPS, but I don't think we have a choice. Are they just being [b]racist and classist[/b]?[/quote] No, they are trying to warn you. Eastern High School and that neighborhood around it is rough.[/quote] His colleagues are going to think he’s a damn fool. [/quote] I didn’t think of that until now but that’s so true. OP it will be *embarrassing* for him to make small talk with his peers and COs and admit he is in a walkable distance and sending his children to these schools. He does NOT want his command to have this impression of him. [/quote] I think the more embarrassing part is that he asked his colleagues for advice and is going to ignore it. It would be different if he hadn’t asked and had just haplessly ended up there. They’ll think he has zero judgment and no trust in them and it will affect his professional reputation.[/quote]
