Trogisch has been fighting against transparency and efforts to add diversity to the school for a bit under a decade. Apparently DCPS found a reason to finally fire him. We should be glad.
My DS who has learning disabilities is now a sophomore in college. The quote above is exactly what was happening to his cohort when it was their turn for high school admission. Privae school offer - come to Walls. Toss up between Wilson and Walls, we have space.
Trogisch told the audience at an open house we attended that IRP support services were limited and that applicants would not make the cut, saying that the students could not keep up. Yes, for him, it was always about the metrics.
OK. SWW is a school for a specific type of student. So what?

Walls was created as an alternative to Banneker. It gave room for a self-motivated high-achiever who didn't fit the Banneker mold.
I'm oversimplify but essentially that was it. They wanted a space of good learners who learned differently. Banneker was for the hardcore *traditional* learners.

Not even sure why we have Walls. It should be dismantled. Nothing wrong with going to your neighborhood HS - Coolidge, Eastern, Cardozo. Seems like that is what people on this thread want. DCPS should give it to them

These kids and parents holding the signs are real life, not anonymous message board posters.
These kids and parents love their teachers, principals and their public school community.
Of course the people in the school like that helped some cheat the admissions system.

I am always surprised more parents don’t complain about some of the things he says at open houses for admissions. DCPS should be suspicious considering he has consistently said things such as the school doesn’t have the supports for kids with IEPs and the 9th grade admissions test is a 10th grade test. Couple that with kids mysteriously getting admissions in the late summer who didn’t test in the spring and you definitely have some things to investigate.

No wonder conservatives hate SWW and Trogisch. They’re arguments against the rightwing effort to destroy public schools.
Conservatives are the ones who argue that there should be school choice, which supports things like charters. SWW is not a neighborhood school.
This PP is a confused troll who thinks that any suggestion that DCPS should reopen comes from Trump charter school trolls.

If you want to make this a racial issue, why not look into the fact that African Americans and Latinos are disproportionately killed by COVID. So opening schools without proper ventilation is creating literal death traps for BLACK PEOPLE.
See what I did there?
Thanks for playing.
