[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a parent orientation meeting upon entering ATS and HB reminding parents they made this choice because of educational style, not elite-ism. There is a power point with 10 or so different ways to diffuse any arguments about the rest of Arlington paying for their special program and neighborhood-specific points on why their local school just doesn’t “suit” their precious dumpling. [/quote] My kid isn’t at either of those schools, but who cares? Arlington County wastes so much money. Who would complain about a public school that people seem to love in light of all the garbage that gets approved by our County Board. If anything, this program should be expanded at other schools to give more families a chance to benefit. There’s clearly a demand. Parents who want to take a stand on tucked in shirts or music class need not apply.[/quote] I suspect this to be true. I hope this isn’t too much of a thread jack but what do you think the government wastes it on? It does seem like whole schools are the main budget item they are never really fully funded, and Arlington must have ways to cut elsewhere. [/quote]
