[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some one should run against Mary Cheh and fix this mess. I live in a $2m+ IB house and am PISSED my IB school is not truly available to my kids. The idea that all of us in fancy IB houses will just go private is stupid.....we didn't get $$$ by wasting our money on private school.  For families with multiple kids, even well heeled families, private school is often a foolish financial decision. [/quote]

Having spoken to Mary Cheh, it appears that she was one of the driving forces in instituting the honors classes at Hardy, at least she intended to be, so I would be careful about saying she needs to be run out of office.  She was the first in her family to graduate from high school (I think, maybe it was college) and she really values education.  When I spoke to her last spring Hardy was very much on her radar screen.  I just saw her randomly at a Cub Scouts function - and then approached her to ask/talk about Hardy.  Her responses made it clear that she had been thinking about it a lot and that she had pushed and would continue to push for more advanced classes.

I have not spoken to any other DC politician in my life, but for years I thought she was a couch potato and I was really impressed with how open she was about Hardy issues and how dedicated she appeared to be to make the school more like Deal.  Just my two cents.............[/quote]
