[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^^ I happen to believe people should do the jobs try are paid for competently, without needing help from others. If they cannot do that, it means they are not doing a good job. Feel free to disagree - I am just stating my position, not burning to convert you. I moved somewhere with good schools because I don't view t as my job to improve a school. You are equally free to live where you want and to work on improving a school if you so desire. Freedom of choice is wonderful. DCPS beaurocracy is not.[/quote] I hate to break it to you, but educating your kids is YOUR job too. Schools don't provide everything, even the best ones. This notion that a school should be a panacea reflects some really questionable parenting[/quote] Yes, different poster here, but I think the point is that this poster, as well as myself, would prefer to spend my valuable time educating my children in our own way instead of improving a struggling school. [/quote] two are not related whatsoever, nor are they mutually exclusive. if you think your child's education is entirely on the school you are wrong.[/quote] Um no, clearly my point was neither of the above. What is limited is my TIME. How I choose to spend my time is my choice, and I choose not to spend it on a low-SES school that desperately needs my time, my income, my intelligence, my effort. Outta luck on this one! [/quote] In case it is not obvious, I will spend as much of my time on my children as possible. I will not spend time on a school that does not meet my standards, nor do I want to spend time teaching against the bad habits my children would pick up in such an environment. Jump all over me, there you go, but that is simply the truth. [/quote]
