This is a pretty amusing and high on the pedestal thread. To be sure there are a number of level comments, but to all of you who act like DCPS = your kid being a fuck up, dealer, and relegated to a life of burger flipping and car washing really are on some other planet. I went to DCPS for 14 years from PreK-12, attended a public ivy (and had admission to actual ivy schools), and am now happily employed in a job that pays well and I like.

I think you all need to find some people that actually went to the schools about which you speak and consider something other than the mutual hysterics of other yuppie parents too afraid to move out of your sweet scented bubble. Not only did I receive a decent education, but instead of being surrounded by a bunch of BMW driving 16 year olds, my class reflected much more of the real world and not the coddled existence of suburbia. It might be tough to stomach, but sometimes it's a good thing to build social skills with people who aren't like you in every way and learn how to deal with a more realistic representation of society than Whitman or TJ.
