[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid (in AAP) has 75 new kids to get to know in his grade that are AAP kids (he knew about 5 kids coming into it). I think getting to know those 75 kids is plenty enough social effort for an 8 yr. old especially b/c they are not likely to see each other outside of school. He doesn't need to get to know the another 50 kids (non-AAP). We aren't looking down on them -- and there is plenty of diversity in DC's AAP grade level.

Perfect reason to have only magnet schools or non at all. This child and parent has no intention of ever getting to know the non-AAP kids or parents.[/quote]

Sorry you didn't make my list of priorities.  It's not personal -- in fact, it's completely impersonal.  I'm living my life.  You live yours.  (Actually, I have made friends with another mom who is a base school parent, but that's b/c she speaks my language and happens to wait in the same area where I wait -- i.e. common experiences.  I didn't befriend her b/c her kid is or isn't AAP.  In fact, we almost never talk about school b/c her kids are in different grades.)[/quote]

But yet it is personal. You are profiling people racially and academically.[/quote]  No... I just don't care about people who aren't in my sphere of attention.  I'm ignoring them (and you) with equal opportunity. [/quote]
