[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow --- tennis court poster really WAS right about hypocrisy. Gross. [/quote] Huh? [/quote] Deal/Janney parents mocking the idea of dealing with Wilson overcrowding by something other than getting rid of the brown kids while simultaneously mocking suburban posters for not being "urban" (as if NWDC were urban) is hypocritical and gross, more so when it includes a slight racist dog whistle. Pretty simple really.[/quote] :roll: Do you think every conversation is about race?[/quote] Sorry -- that's a side effect of knowing a lot about American history and political economy.[/quote] I am a Deal/Janney parent. I don't think they should cut out OOB kids. I think they should plan for the school size they have and provide the resources to teach all the kids they have well, maybe provide a well resrouced path for brining in more OOB at risk kids with academic promise that did not make it into the application schools. If "Honors for All" is working for 9th and 10th graders, give Wilson the resoruces to do that AND keep class sizes reasonable across all grades, including APs. It will serve more students well. Increasing the size and cutting the budget is what is causing chaos, not the number of 9th grade students. There are lots of examples of bigger schools providing a solid education.[/quote] Ditto...I'm a Murch/Deal parent. If you promised the kids they could go through - they should. Change it for those coming in but don't pull the rug. That said..redistrict for the future. And fund the school!!!![/quote]
