[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]right, let's all move - that seems like the sane solution.

I'm not the person you accuse of being a belly-acher, but we CANNOT move right now.  I'm so glad that you can actually weather losing money, but a lot of us cannot.  We bought several years ago and our income has gone down rather than up and the areas we would want to move to are more expensive than the one we currently live in (which actually is one of the cheapest SFH communities in the county).

I hate this "well, MY school isn't like that" nonsense.  It definitely is an "I've got mine, screw everyone else" mentality.  I have a GenEd child with an LD in one of the 2 schools that were mentioned above as a toxic environment for non-AAP children.  While her teachers have been fantastic, the separation between the base GenEd and the AAP students is so blatant.  Why should ANY child in our system be made to feel lesser?  Just because YOUR child doesn't feel that way, it doesn't mean it isn't happening.[/quote]

As long as the AAP kids are happy, screw the Gen Ed students.  My God, what would happen if there were no centers?  The horror.  [/quote]

Aap parent here. What the hell do you want me to do? Tell me specifically.[/quote]

No one's asking you to do anything.  Many of us would like FCPS to discontinue centers and send all kids back to their base schools.  It's very simple.[/quote]

I disagree. When a GE parent rails against all AAP parents as looking out for our own and "screw the Gen Ed students" you are implying we aren't doing enough in the name of equality. "If there were no centers? The horror." That snipe wasn't directed at the county.[/quote]
