[quote=Anonymous]I am a 5+ year parent at SWS.  I am grateful that my kids got into and go to this school.  At the same time, I am unhappy with the school's efforts around diversity.

I have talked to the principal on numerous occasions and received the same 'oh well - what can you do?' type response.  Given another option for a school, we would take it.  SWS has slid by on a lot of things because parents were happy on some levels with the education.  I hope this most recent surge in voices questioning practices will result in some changes.

I used to buy in to the AA parents wanted different educational approaches for their children.  I don't anymore - AA parents ranging from the security guard to others have commented that if they'd known about this school, they would have applied.  There is a lot the school could be doing to reach out to AA parents - for starters, specifically asking current AA parents to volunteer at open houses, DCPS events and the MOTH school info night.   Let's not give the school a pass.[/quote]
