[quote=Anonymous]We've been on the Hill since the 90s. The parents we know at Brent who like Young are your garden-variety neighborhood high SES parents. If you're vaguely offbeat and ask for a little flexibility to do your own thing for good reason, best of luck. He's a very conservative leader who won't stick his neck out for a family in difficulty. Many of us disliked the way he managed the language chance, sending the Chinese teachers packing after failing to support their work for several years, imposing Latin on us all, then racing ahead to impose Spanish on us all. His handling of the language chance speaks to his disdain for meaningful parental involvement. He treats his parents like a cash machine - you get no say in how things work unless you join the clubby PTA Board or are voted on the LSAT, but come under heavy pressure to pay up anyway. [/quote]
