You must be thinking of Michelle Rhee.  I'd take her back over Kaya in a heartbeat![/quote]

If Rhee's original plans to significantly change Hardy had been put into effect (as Kim's reforms at Deal were), Hardy would be a much stronger middle school today with a much higher IB participation rate.   Instead, it's a distant also-ran compared with Deal.[/quote]

Really, PP just couldn't resist that opportunity to take down Hardy. Seriously, there needs to be some donation to a charity when someone posts a trashy comment about Hardy. They do it during baseball games--when a player hits it out of the park or a player takes a walk, a donation is made to a charity.

"There's another comment trashing Hardy. Lexus will donate $60 to Girls on the Run..."

:roll: [/quote]

[b]Virtually no one, given the choice of Deal or Hardy, would opt for Hardy.  Even most families who live in bounds for Hardy and don't have the Deal option avoid Hardy like the plague.  You are welcome call it "trashing."  We call it reality.

It is a shame that Rhee couldn't swing her big broom and fully clean out the Hardy stables when she was here.  Had she been able to do so, Hardy might be in a very different posture than it is today.[/quote][/b]

What a lucky boy or girl some kid is to have a bitch of a mother like you, honey.[/quote]

Sticks and stones....

But no one has refuted the proposition that, had Hardy been significantly Rhee-formed, the school today would be far more attuned and responsive to its core community -- i.e., its boundary area.  It would have a much higher IB enrollment and be a lot like Deal academically.[/quote]

If  Hardy had been "rhee-formed" a whole cadre of in-bound parents wouldn't feel so foolish for once thinking that Hardy would be transformed by a miracle in which they played a part led by a national hero, that when it didn't work they felt they had no choice but to deny their foolishness ad infinitum -- especially on DCUM.   They would be embarrassed to do it IRL,because at some level, they know they are being ridiculous.

At some level, they are deeply embarrassed, but they can't acknowledge it, because the feeling of  loss of that moment of glory is so much stronger.[/quote]
