Just learned that several of our son's classmates are going back to Stoddert and Oyster for K. Happened in DD's class a year ago and the new kids were challenges, pretty sure they didn't attend DCPS for PS and were disruptive all year, etc.

Thanks JKLMM. Why can't these schools get their own PS programs or be excluded from Lower NW/EOTP?


what school?


Stoddert and Oyster are not JKLM. It's not just semantics and the alphabet -- people who live on 622_ 30th St NW in Lafayette are not driving back and forth to whatever school you're talking about for PS3. Neither are families living at 50th St NW (Mann) or 4800 Brandywine (Janney).

Your issue is with the "lower NW" elementaries themselves -- not upper NW JKLM -- that don't offer ps3.

It may be the everyone is playing the lottery, but it only selfish JLKM'ers who are taking DCPS PK spots EOTP.

Sorry lower NW. This is happening everywhere in the city. Petworth and Columbia Heights DCPS and charters are a good example. People keep "lotterying" until they find a better fit. Maybe they should improve the "with proximity" feature

I agree that this thread should die, but I actually like when posters quote the conversation to which they are replying (as you know very well, it is never the entire thread). When I pop into a long thread like that, I can catch up on an ongoing conversation without searching for its origin. And if I have been following a thread continuously, I don't mind scrolling over something I have already read - at least I see at a glance what the poster is replying to. So I don't think it's a matter of "not knowing" how to delete part of a quote (thanks for the condescension), but different preferences.


I think this mainly bothers people who browse DCUM on their phones. I never do that, so it doesn't bother me at all.
