[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me guess... You live in Old Town. There is quite a significant cultural difference between those families living in Old Town versus the rest of Alexandria, such as the West End, Del Ray, Rosemont, etc. It seems that those of us who don't live in Old Town are, for whatever reason, much more supportive of ACPS (in general, of course!).[/quote] I live in Del Ray and have no problem recognizing the truth about ACPS. The schools are predominantly horrible failures that offer no benefits for average-to-gifted children. This isn't rocket science. The schools (GW, TC, and many more) have lots of kids whose parents never read to them. That's what happens in poverty. The schools and teachers are overwhelmed by the attention needed to keep them from dropping out the squeaky wheel gets the oil. Kids whose parents read to them are less in need and they get no attention. [/quote]
