NP here. We used to attend a charter school mentioned on this thread that is currently experiencing significant leadership struggles. The environment was eerily similar among parents and teachers--even though critical thinking was supposedly prioritized, parents were afraid to speak out against glaring issues with the school (particularly around COVID, when the former HOS refused to open in person). It was bizarre to me.

The challenge at that school (good riddance, DOCTOR K) and SWS and many others is that demographic advantages cover all manner of sins during the ECE years. I don't know that parents are afraid to challenge the school as much as they don't see a need to do so while things are going well. You look pats the SJW nonsense at SWS and the expeditionary crap at other unnamed schools because your kid is progressing and gets contact with kids from different walks of life. Then 2nd or 3rd grade and hormones hit and you start to hear about behavioral issues. You start to realize classroom management is not the string suit of these schools. You start to understand that the foundation of "equity, equity, EQUITY" that was a buzzword in ECE is a shield and sword used to shut up anyone who dissents. That's when kids leave. For BASIS, Latin, privates and the burbs. The cycle repeats. None of this is new. What I believe happened was that COVID exacerbated the behavioral and learning challenges and exposed the fiction that screaming equity solves anything.

Wrong! This equity based programming is in place to ensure that sheltered white students don’t end up being racists and afraid of black folks like their parents.

Troll better my friend.

Why is it that whenever anyone mentions anything about race, white folks get upset? Ask yourself why you’re getting upset when black people call out racism. Could it be that you’re guilty of being a racist?

Lmao, sure

Please tell us what’s so funny about this. I’m sure that all of the black families would like to laugh too.

I’m sure the black families would prefer strong academics than some performative nonsense. At least my family would prefer that.

Black families, particularly those living in the areas surrounding SWS, want high academic standards. The standards at SWS have been steadily slipping as the Principal’s weird crusade has ratcheted up.
