[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is an MCPS principal I gather, at a close-in school that doesn't want parental involvement unless it's stuffing folders alone in a back room.[/quote]

Nah.  I think OP tells us the truth from her first post.  She grew up in a college town where everyone was middle class and well educated, and where people weren't freaking out about education because they had the privilege of knowing that their kids were likely to be just fine, as the kids of college professors and instructors.

She's trying to recreate that, but in a very different city.

The thing she is looking for doesn't really exist here.  Maybe Takoma Park 15 years ago.  If she doesn't care about racial or socioeconomic diversity and has $1 million to throw at the problem, maybe AU Park.

But the exact thing she is looking for (Madison in the mid-80s) isn't found here.  [/quote]

I grew in a different Midwestern college town in the 70s and mid-80s, and really, it wasn't found there then either, although some people liked to believe at the time (and now) that it was.[/quote]
