[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is some intense jealousy, lots of insecurity and bitterness from the folks who live on the Einstein side of Kensington. If they believed that school performance doesn't matter they would have saved another 100K or even 200K and moved into PG county. They're in the middle now talking out of both sides of their mouths. If they could have afforded the WJ and BCC side of Kensington they would be there in a heartbeat. Instead they pretend it doesn't matter while they are the first to then take shots at PG. These are the insufferable people and biggest hypocrites in the area. They actually come off as racist as they talk about diversity. You'll hear things like oh I love the diversity but there is enough tracking in high school so your child is with similar (aka UMC white) peers or don't worry UMC white kids do fine anywhere (lovely and always assumes whomever you are speaking with is UMC and 100% white) or oh gee the school is getting better because they saw another white family move in. I mean seriously it is intensely disgusting. [/quote] It is not jealousy or bitterness. If I had tons more money, believe me, Parkwood or ToK is NOT where I would be as a first choice in this region. People on that side of Kensington are snootier about living there. The people on the Einstein side are sick of being looked down upon as second class citizens. Additionally, they are not wrong about how UMC white children at Rock View, Oakland Terrace and Einstein have similar test scores and outcomes to UMC white children at Parkwood/WJ. That's just truth. I don't see how that is racist. [/quote]
