[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The crux of the problem certainly isn't vendettas. It's black cloud we all live under, having been handed a raw deal by politicians for middle school and high school year after year, decade after decade. Whatever solution you go for, you're just making do. After a point, Hill parents can have limited patience with those who claim otherwise ("Eliot-Hine, wonderful!," "Jefferson Academy, fantastic rigor!," "BASIS, couldn't be happier!" etc.). I feel sorry for the many 11-18 year olds around here who spend over an hour schlepping to DCI by public transport one way. But that's the best their families can do to stay home in a wonderful community, so they cope.[/quote] It’s also the problem with school choice. People in DC are generally insecure, so unless everyone they know chooses the same school as they do, they constantly worry about whether they made the right choice. This worry turns into tearing down everyone else’s choice.[/quote]
