[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be more forgiving if Weedon didn’t judge parents who picked other schools for their kid because that’s what was best for their kid. For years anyone choosing charter was racist.  I have personally gotten pushback from some of my neighbors (like Weedon) for going with a popular charter. I have no problem pointing out their hypocrisy now. [/quote]

Exactly. In fact I wonder if in his stated 15 years of civic/educational participation and service on Board of Education he may have actively pushed back against or favored anti- charter policies. A selective school like Walls is the safe way to "do public" when wanting the academics as he stated, AND to maintain liberal party line street cred. Theres a reason so many ultra liberal Capitol Hill families are "at Walls". The daughter is the only one I sympathize with here. Hope she knows if she does attend Easten it can feel super weird to be a one -of (I know, cause I was) but she seems super well adjusted just from her comments, and she has her college essay and admission to Yale without bribery right there. As to Joe, the hypocrisy oh my.[/quote]
