Well you tried to be a little more realistic. A lot of these items on the wishlist are things that a PTA would be spearheading.

I don't really know of any program in the DMV area that does Kindergarten pullouts. FCPS does some pull outs for 1st and 2nd at some schools.

I'm baffled about "*more diverse, better educated, and less PC teaching staff "

LT invariably wear their social justice crusader bona fides on their sleeves...poor kids this, FARMs kids that, ad naseum.  Where are the teachers accustomed to teaching affluent kids, of the type we have around here in spades?   Where are the Asian and Latino immigrant teachers?  The elite college grads?  Hill elementary school principals routinely hire these types.  The with-it Quebecois Maury principal sets the tone over there, as does the Harvard MA-holding Brent chief.  In a neighborhood where parents routinely hold multiple graduate degrees, dealing with LT teachers can be a bummer.

Around half of the LT teachers I've talked to over the years (maybe 20 in all) haven't struck me as particularly astute.  I stand by my statement verbatim: more diverse, better-educated, and less PC teaching staff, so launch into me, folks.
