+1,000. The "low FARMS" thing is so prejudice. the people who proclaim this as a perk, make me want to barf.

OMG, the contract is classic:

Word salad wrote it!

"Children have the right to be recognized as subjects of individual, legal, civil, and social rights; as both source and
constructors of their own experience, and thus active participants in the organization of their identities, abilities, and
autonomy, through relationships and interaction with their peers, with adults, with ideas, with objects, and with real and
imaginary events of intercommunicating worlds."

I don't see anything wrong with it other than the sentences are long. It seems to have been translated from Spanish to English. It makes perfect sense in Spanish. You sound ridiculously ignorant.

It may make perfect sense in Spanish (although I doubt it), but that is a truly awkward and poorly written sentence in English, which is the language in which it is presented. For starters it is objectively grammatically wrong. Phrases separated by a semicolon are supposed to be able to stand on their own as sentences; the phrase after the semicolon in that "sentence" doesn't even have a subject.

I hope for its students' sake LAMB is teaching better English grammar and structure than it is presenting here. In addition, you should probably not be calling people ridiculously ignorant when you dont understand the subject matter you are talking about.

As long as you're going to be the grammar police...

I'll let your failure to employ the Oxford comma slide, but not your lack of a necessary apostrophe. That's sloppy. In another post it might be no big deal, but you're the one who decided to get pedantic.

First, 22:46, since you seem to have a working grasp of grammar, I assume that you are in complete agreement with the PP you are criticizing that the LAMB quote at issue is terrible English? Is that right?

Second, I'm glad you'll let the failure to employ the Oxford comma slide, since it is strictly optional in contemporary American English usage and in this case introduces no ambiguity of meaning. Finally, the failure to use an apostrophe in "don't" is almost certainly a typo, rather than the full-on breakdown in basic grammar that the LAMB quote at issue demonstrates. You had to really dig deep to find a nit to pick here.

Actually, I haven't read the LAMB letter or notice or whatever was quoted. I also didn't have to dig deep at all - the glaring typo jumped out at me, I didn't search for it. Ordinarily, I would let it slide. It's only worth pointing out because of the poster's tone of superiority - maybe make sure you're grammatically flawless before prancing on that high horse?

Me? I'm deeply flawed. I'm not pretending otherwise.

The question is really, why wouldn't you love LAMB? It's easily one of the best public elementaries in the city.

Depends on what you mean by low. There are still 28% economically disadvantaged students and 37% ELL.

Its not Janney -- more like Oyster in that regard only.

Oyster is 22% economically disadvantaged.

Journalism is hardly a rigorous discipline.
