[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]True, and pathetic, along with your puerile obsession with the issue.[/quote]

Pretty sure the post you replied to was sarcasm. [/quote]. Hilarious. Just so funny that the best school EotP can’t afford a library. [/quote]

And yet, in spite of that, you conclude it is indeed THE BEST. Had you the ability to engage in reasoned thought you'd understand that the fact that it is very successful without a library means a library is a nice to have, not a necessary condition for or to success.[/quote]

My kid is at Bruce Monroe, a Title 1 East of the Park, and we have an amazing library and full time librarian who has been there for the five years my kid has attended. The lbirary is always open and kids can come by after school on their own to get books and younger kids kid Library time as a weekly special.[/quote]

Setting aside for a moment that BM is an ES...Yes, and??? Did you hear someone say having a library was bad? I didn't. What was said was that in the grand scheme of what is important to a high quality education and academic success, a library isn't remotely essential. The narrative on BASIS is that even though they have amazing test scores and tons of AP classes and get their kids into amazing colleges with a ton of merit aid..."but it doesn't have a library".

P.S. You have a kid in ES so you aren't thinking about these things, but when your kids get older they'll go places by themselves. BASIS is a block away from the main DCPL building - the nicest library in DC.   [/quote]
