[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not understanding a big part of this: for all you frustrated parents, railing at the system, hating Fenty, hating Rhee and hating the schools...why are you sending your kids to those schools? What exactly are you setting out to change?[/quote]For the record, I voted for Fenty and was optimistic about him.  I was agnostic about the mayoral takeover of the schools - hated the underhanded way he went about it - got elected in the Democratic primary first and then announced it [i]after[/i] he was in effect elected mayor via the primary but later I was convinced it was a good idea.  Was also agnostic about Rhee at first until I saw her make my daughter's school worse. And then I watched while she refused to take any responsibility for her mistakes and while her supporters acted as if anyone who criticized her were gleefully supporting failing schools.

My point is - I didn't start out hating Fenty or Rhee at all. Their massive screw ups and unwillingness to learn from them turned me off. And many of their supporters continue to frame this as a [i]difference of intentions [/i]as in Rhee wants accountability and good teaching while people like me cling to mediocrity when the truth of the matter is that it was a [i]matter of inexperience and incompetence[/i].
