[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 22:00 Poster--Exactly, which MOCO facilities are great. Can you please provide a list. I have toured some, and I would like to know the ones that you are referencing in your post.

Specifically, I was referring to on campus playgrounds. Most MOCO element arises have them. Mundo Verde does not. Love to thee Takoma Park Elementary playgrounds. Does that answer your question?  That was the main facilities complaint in this thread, no?

And, luckily, my family has not been left in the cold. We have a spot at an HRCS that we love. But it is not for the faint of heart. However, many others are not so lucky. To come onto a forum where many hundreds of people wish to God they could get into Mundo Verde (as we do) and whine about the finer points of a tour is simply tone deaf and a bit rude.

Ask for information, sure.  [b]But to act like you are anything other than extraordinarily lucky comes across as misunderstanding the situation many of your fellow DC parents are in.[/b][/quote]

I think this attitude is what is wrong.  Just because some schools are better than horrendous schools, doesn't mean the person is lucky,or can't have concerns.  We are in a HRCS and the attitude is well if you don't like it and have any critique what so ever, then you are wrong, ungrateful, not supportive.  Parents are supposed to question, push advocate for better.  And because I'm in a school that isn't absolute shit, doesn't mean I'm "lucky"  it means I'm in an ok school.  And even if I'm in the best school, its still my job as a parent to push for better and better to the benefit of my kid (in supportive ways of course).  this only helps those coming after us to have a better experience.  Almost no school in this city is where is should be, so we should all be questioning, pushing, supporting, not telling each other to shut up because your lucky.[/quote]

+1 (and then some). [/quote]
