Avra Siegel needs to consider either private school or home-schooling. She clearly has the means, and clearly is staying with DCPS solely to pick fights at this point. She's doing no one any favors with this pointless crusade, including her own kids.[/quote]

She received a benefit that she wasn't entitled to. If she's unhappy with DCPS, then she (and others like her) should make other arrangements. [/quote]

Or - you know - advocate for what you believe in and for change you think is necessary?

But wait because they live west of the park that’s not allowed?[/quote]

I say this as a WOTP DCPS parent: go away. [/quote]

Oh please. This entire thread has been slamming “rich” Lafayette families (including children) and my post is the problem?[/quote]

No one is "slamming" children.

The thread isn't about all Lafayette parents. It's about a few specific, extremely entitled Lafayette parents. Who have kindly identified themselves and keep going out of their way to explain to the public and the media how entitled they are.[/quote]

This is your opinion and I disagree. They’re advocating for something they believe in and advocating for their child. In any other scenario this would be praised. Public Schooling should be a cooperative effort between families and the city. Not adversarial.[/quote]

So why didn't these families discuss delaying kindergarten with the school a year ago? Cooperative effort? Really? Nope.

This. All of this. They didn't ask they assumed and then they assumed that even after they attacked the principal publicly for other things she'd be happy to give them what they wanted or at least if she didn't DCPS would. It didn't happen and now they are losing their minds and, if it's them on this board, saying some truly repulsive stuff.[/quote]

If you know these families, you can definitely pick a few of them out on this thread by the writing and how they’ve drafted complaints in the past. It’s not hard. [/quote]
