[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: I find it interesting that once I identified the county all of my harsh critics and people calling this post boring have gone silent. I wonder why. I intentionally didn't name the county because I didn't want anyone to think I was trashing an entire county's public school system. But the silence of all the other posters speaks volumes. I suspect not one of them still thinks my public school should be an option. It never fails to amaze me the type of people who are on this board.[/quote]

I wouldn't read that much into it. I expect people who have said the thread is boring, have gone elsewhere. They're not hanging on your every word, with baited breath.[/quote]

I call pure bullshit! When they assumed I was criticizing one of their White neighborhood public schools they where up in arms. Now that's it's clear I'm speaking about a public school in PG county (with more minorities) all of the harsh critics have squat to say. You can choose to not read into it all you want. I know better.[/quote]

Not sarcastic here, really I'd like you to make this a teachable moment for me. Many of us in other counties are under the impression that PG schools are not that good, and would not be surprised if private school options were better. This is a very different calculus in Montgomery and Fairfax and NW DC, for example, where schools rank higher and generally can serve students as well as local privates. Am I being racist for saying PG schools aren't that great? I'm really not kidding -- I want to not be a jerk.
