[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jesus Christo. Shut the heck up. Enough already with the uniforms thing. Seriously.

Go ahead, flame me for being "one of the Hardy natives" or someone who "wants to maintain the status quo." I'm in-bound (for Mann, as in previous posts).

I care about the education, first and foremost. Advanced courses matter. Scores and feeder enrollment matter. The difference between inputs and outputs matter. Uniforms do not. [/quote]

Well, the number of kids yelling four-letter obscenities mixed with loud allusions to sodomy (as they depart from school) is also distasteful, but may also become less of a concern as time goes by.[/quote]

Troll (or a booster for Stephanie Lilley, candidate for Board of Education Ward 3. Lilley has already taken steps to open a middle school charter school just feet from Hardy - see http://greatergreaterwashington.org/post/24498/does-ward-3-need-a-charter-middle-school-or-can-hardy-transform-itself/  ).

I have been checking around Hardy by 3:15 pm (when kids are dismissed from school) for the past weeks. I have not seen any inappropriate behavior. Yes, lots of noise, kids running (on your feet if you stay too close to the school), but nothing of concern to me, or unexpected from a wave of 11-14 year old kids.

Nah, I'm not a troll; what I'm describing is accurate and worthy of discussion if folks are concerned about improving the atmosphere, that is if you think loud obscenity warrants a mention.  Go sit on the sidewalk corner and you'll hear a lot of loud obscenities, straight-up.  But there's no physical misbehavior, if that's what you mean.  I don't think it's trollish to suggest that the amount of obscenity will diminish if the percentage of IB attendance goes up.  But, I could be wrong if there's a lot of obscenity at Deal, too, which has a higher IB percentage than Hardy.  I've never been around Deal at dismissal time to find out and make a comparison.[/quote]
