[quote=Anonymous]Look, there are ways to talk about actual issues that schools face without it turning into education trench warfare. A lot of people love MV and its model - the focus on environmentalism + Spanish is attractive to a lot of people. But no school is perfect. There are real problems that are affecting a lot of people's kids. The more people dig in and try to paint those problems as a handful of disgruntled parents with poorly behaved children bashing the school for no reason (or painting the school as a terrible environment that doesn't live up to the hype), the less grounded in reality any of these conversations are. If the point is for people to make informed decisions, the hyperbole needs to get walked back, as well as the people taking things personally.[/quote]
