[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do the Hearst boosters feel the need to put down other schools in support of Hearst?

Please point to me the specific posts where a Murch person spoke about not wanting to go to Hearst because of:

Test scores
Too many brown children
Lack of extras

Just hasn't happened though Hearst boosters keep claiming it has!  As has been pointed out that OP can't be talking about Hearst/Murch since there are zero houses within two blocks of Murch that were rezoned for Hearst!

Are you f#$ing kidding me?  Hearst is maligned constantly on DCUM.  If you've read any of the numerous threads on this topics, Murch posters have mentioned test scores and extras many many times.  And of course they don't mention the brown children, but they use all the code words of OOB kids, at risk kids, low income kids, etc.  And anyone who has attended one of the community meetings has heard Murch people slam Hearst repeatedly.  One person even said "over my dead body" would they send their kids to Hearst.  The meetings got so bad that a Murch PTA leader called one of our board members to apologize.

So please.  PLEASE.  To say that Hearst boosters "put down other schools in support of Hearst" is completely ridiculous.  Do we defend our school?  Yes, when misinformation and paranoia is spread, we speak up.  [/quote]
