[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A different 5th grade parent here. We, and DC, are very happy so far. We would love to be able to stay through 12th grade, both because we don't want DC to be in a ritzy private nor a weak or wild public.

The things that will make us leave? DC being crushed by workload (don't want basis to water this down, but will not put a life preserver on DC if it's really too much for DC personally) and discipline problems. I don't care whether the school is majority AA, so long as the students are there to learn and reverse racism, bullying, fighting, cheating (our  last school was DCPS, can you tell?) are nipped in the bud and the chronic troublemakers are thrown out.[/quote]
Just reverse racism? So it would bother you to be in a school that racist?[/quote]

Don't be dense /cute-- in our previous DCPS, DC was in the minority (white) and was threatned/bullied by low ses black kids. I would love it if we have made it to the point where racism can just be called what it is when it's black on white, which is not uncommon in DC proper. These kids learned it from their parents like the bad way things have existed among certain white families, when we are allowed to just call it "racist".[/quote]
