Getting those answers
I see the two comments objecting to my post on (or my "allegations" about and "persecution" of) the Grace Hudson school, but neither answers my question: Is it true (as the mother who called me said she was told) that you can only register your child with Grace Hudson if you start at kindergarten, unless your child already speaks Spanish? I suspect that "picking up the phone" would have gotten me exactly the same answers.
And here's another question that came up in conversation at Schat's last week: Is there a group of staffers at Grace Hudson hoping to turn that school into a charter school?
(I know some people mistakenly take this blog for a news site. Blogs are, by their definition, fairly loose records of thoughts and opinions, hopefully creating back and forth conversations about issues and information. Some people have posted comments that I should be out there investigating and researching things before I post them. I find, on the other hand that posting something on this blog is - in many cases - a great way to get answers I'm looking for. And of course much of what I post is just my own opinion and I welcome all the responses.)

Stop acting bitter towards public education. And stop "suspecting" information, and actually do some reporting. If the editor of a newspaper can't even pick up a phone to confirm a source, then you shouldn't be a part of the media.
Your reputation keeps getting worse, a bratty, ignorant person that goes after public education, which is an easy target for those that have no knowledge of the subject and sit behind a desk all day.
