[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]0P here. I am not against out of boundary students per se. What I am against is the overcrowding in our high-performing schools because parents of low performing schools won't take the hard and uncomfortable actions to increase standards at their schools. [/quote]

And do any of the points people made here about WHY those parents can't take effective action resonating with you?

Or are you just covering your ears, singing la-la-la, and pretending that all those parents have your [b]money and advantages and time?[/b]

Those are structural barriers. They are very difficult to overcome. You need to grasp that factor if you want to really understand the problem rather than fling shit.

What are these "structural barriers "you keep prattling on about? Democrats control every elected office in this city.[/quote]

Let me spell it out again, since you can't read the big words. Money. Time. Education level of parents, too.

Political parties have nothing to do with these factors. Turn off Fox and look around yourself. Or just go private. Then you won't have to worry about nasty OOB parents.[/quote]

Money? DC PS spends the same amount of money per kid per school. And more than the burbs. And I pay my taxes so I deserve my school.
Time? Make time for the education of your child. [/quote]

Look, did you come here for actual answers to your question? They've been amply provided.

If you don't like these answers, or are incapable of understanding them, then hold on to your initial assumption that all OOB families are lazy. Stop pressing for a chorus of "We agree with you! You are SO RIGHT."

Why not go private? I'm genuinely curious. You won't have to deal with OOB problems then. You claim that you're wealthy and hard-working and basically a superior creature in all regards.

Why do you want to be in a public school?[/quote]
