[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The accusations of racist motivation with no basis in fact are amusing. We are what some of you so colorfully characterized as "brown people". The whole point of living EOTP is to be around our fellow "brown people", not to have a bigger house (it’s just the three of us). I’d like my daughter to be around "brown children" at school too (so no "ewww", sorry), but not at the expense of her education. The fact that some of you translated "good public school" into "no brown children" is all on you. Thanks for those who posted thoughtful answers, you brought up several issues I hadn’t considered. We may end up looking at alternatives as a result. [/quote] This really isn't making you look any better. [/quote] Once you have a cheater's mindset, you have to not care at all how you look on a message board. Just think about what will matter to get away with the ruse. For instance, I would go for Eaton or Hearst where I could blend in with the other OOB families. Ironically, my next choice would be Janney, where I would hope the school size would help me get lost in the crowd. (Not many apts. in bound for Janney, but they do exist). [/quote] Our neighbors are technically cheaters. They moved OOB, and nextdoor, a few years ago and never told their principal, while renting out house #1. They're also the last people we'd turn in. They're the kind of people who patiently lobby the ANC and DDOT to get a disastrous sidewalk changed until they get results. They're an asset to the neighborhood, paying property tax on 2 houses (a few blocks apart) they've fixed up beautifully over many years. I'm not going to judge. [/quote]
