[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The BCC principal has a history of pandering to well-off parents and being dismissive of lower-income (or really, just middle income) parents.  There are kids at BCC who live in apartments, who live in regular middle class homes in Silver Spring, etc.  This was kind of a slap in the face to them -- but not surprising.[/quote]

Excuse me, but there are people who send their kids to BCC who live in regular middle class homes in BETHESDA. Not all of us bought in the last few years. Think about it...if you have a kid in HS there you could have easily bought a small 900 - 1500 square foot house in the neighborhood behind BCC for around $150K - $200K. Not all of those houses have been torn down. Not all of them have been improved. There are SHOCK regular MIDDLE CLASS people STILL living in Bethesda - police officers, teachers, government workers, etc. [/quote]

OK, sure, so I will include you in my middle-income comments.

But I think my point stands:  the BCC principal has an attitude that people paid to get into her school and should be rewarded for that investment.  I have heard her express this many times, in many different ways, but it all comes down to that. This approach is problematic for many reasons in a public school setting.  [/quote]
