[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am not sure why we work so hard at the navel gazing and looking for perfect answers.

Save $100M by having more kids go to Cardozo or Shaw or whatever

The alternative to sticking different populations and then matching staffing to matching their needs around here is always build an F-ing new building because a new box never has the old problems and the old box is a bottomless cesspool. People are so f-ing facile about this it's pitiful. You think you can get a sports team and advanced teacher of X at Palisades High that you couldn't get at Cardozo High? Forget it. It's the same process. There's no magic of the new.

So then comes the argument that we all are gonna leave. "White people ghost town. Black middle class needs to be the most fearful because the bad kids are black. Asian families demand TJ Junior." Blah blah terrible arguments blah.

We have always had the alternative of moving to east bumblefk. That's why DC has 600K and the region has 6M population. Just do it, it integrates the city and the tears last a f-ing year and then it's done. We hustle to get the teachers we want into the schools we got instead of into a construction project on Foxhall. Gawd we're like the kid standing at the end of the diving board all the time wondering if we can crawl back down the stairs instead of diving in. Eventually, we've got to dive in.[/quote]

This reads like someone who has no f_ing clue about what she speaks. Like, do you even have children, let alone children in DCPS? You pronounce on high but betray that you know nothing.

Admittedly, this is not a substantive response. I see no indication that putting forth even a modicum of effort engaging with this poster will pay any dividends whatsoever. [/quote]
