But maybe it will be different when his son, two years younger, is ready for high school. He is already having a more fruitful middle school experience at ­Eliot-Hine. When it’s their son’s turn, the Weedons hope they can confidently enroll him in Eastern. — Wapo, April 13, 2019


So it's two years later. Is Joe's son at Eastern?

Which is why Wheedon and others like him should STFU about where other students decide to go to school. It took it hitting personally for JW to learn that lesson. Others never do.


I just looked at his twitter. He has not learned a lesson or humbled himself whatsoever. Still tweets the same toxic race hustling class warfare inflammatory crap every day like the hypocritical hack that he is.

You are nuts.

Not the PP you're responding to. PP is astute, far from nuts.

The invitation was part of Principal Sah Brown’s plan to introduce residents to Eastern.

Clapp, who is white, came away impressed. After the visit, it was decided.

Her children would attend Eastern.

“I want my kids to know they are no better than any other kids from any other background and to pull them out of their feeder school because it’s predominantly black school, that sends the wrong message,” Clapp said.”

One Tok class is not enough to make me choose Eastern. ToK is taught at every IB school, like for instance, DCI.

I wonder what this parent would think of my kids, who aren’t white and choose charter. I’m not sending my kids to E-H or Eastern.



I think the point is that the Eastern class showed her that it's good enough for her kids, not that it's uniquely good.

I think her statements are specifically about her and her family's values. I admire her efforts - not sure I will make the same decisions, but very glad to have parents like her around.


Hmm I do not care for people who send the message that those of us with high academic standards are racists.


This.

And then you came here and dug up this ancient thread and posted about him. You need help.

Huh? I looked at his Twitter stream and it just looks like he is supporting more investment in DC schools. How can you dislike that?

I have zero patience any more for policy gaflies who have never spent a minute actually running any of the public services they love to criticize.

+1 that's what gets me. Why are so many people hell bent on telling other people what to do. It's a personal choice. The outright hypocrisy not withstanding.
