I expect educated wealthy people to at least try to look like they care about young kids from families with low incomes. I guess in the MAGA era there is no need to even pretend to care.


Thomas Taylor certainly isn't pretending. Ef him.


He thinks about kids from low income families every morning on his elevator down to the kitchen.

This has nothing to do with MAGA. But, why would you expect that?

As a Whitman alum I am pretty disgusted and appalled by this.

They could have said they support reducing class sizes for the schools in their cluster. But they specifically said they support his overall class size recommendations.

And it's not the Whitman PTA (which is a high school) it is representatives of the Whitman Cluster and seems to be focused on the elementary schools in the cluster.



They said they support Taylor's recommendation, and like Taylor they are falsely stating it just decreases class sizes when in fact it increases class sizes for the very children that benefit the most from smaller class sizes.

No, they specifically said they agree with the Superintendent's recommendation. That recommendation includes increasing class sizes for the youngest, poorest students. Certainly, just like Taylor they are pretending he is just decreasing class sizes, but if you believe they didn't notice who is getting increased class sizes then I have a bridge to sell you.

I support decreasing class sizes for all students. The Einstein PTA leaders expressed a similar sentiment and empathy for other schools. But Whitman PTA seem happy to have decreased class sizes for their schools but increased class sizes for the highest need schools.
