[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the DCPS parents here who support the K enrollment policies and want to see them better enforced, have you found a productive way outside DCUM to voice your concerns?

It’s only one crazy parent and she’s not even in DCPS. Her story changes depending on the forum she’s posting on.

Honestly it’s just a paranoid idiot at this point. [/quote]

What on earth are you talking about? [/quote]

It’s not a bunch of parents complaining about redshirting, it’s just one crazy cat lady. No amount of sock puppeting is going to change that. In that respect your stupidity is quite unique.

I haven’t met a single parent in real life objecting to other kids being held back.[/quote]

I am not whoever you have been responding to previously and I absolutely object to parents redshirting kids unilaterally in DCPS. With school and/or teacher support? Absolutely. Making the choice unilaterally? No. I don't want DCPSes to become like private schools where the "official" cutoff and the actual cutoff are entirely different. It absolutely disadvantages poor kids who don't have options. And certainly parents shouldn't get two bites at PK lotteries for desirable placements. I would actually guess that the majority of parents have broadly similar views. Certainly they do on this thread. If your takeaway from this thread is that most posters support the NW parents pushing this then you are truly delusional.[/quote]

This seems to be the overall popular opinion both on this thread and when I've spoken to people in the real world broadly. So this person can convince themselves it's a lone wolf in opposition to them but they are very wrong.[/quote]
