One Response to “Mayor’s Schedule”

  1. Jonathan R. Rees Says:

    Mayor Adrian Fenty who champions better schools in the District of Columbia has made it clear that he will not enroll his two sons in our public school system.

    The fact that Mayor Fenty will not enroll his sons in our public school system should be a warning sign to all that Fenty knows that he will fail in making the DC public school system better than it is.

    I have argued that the best Fenty can accomplish is to slap on a few coats of paint, replace a few windows and doors and other repairs but he will have no impact upon the performance of our students.

    If Fenty was confident in what he is doing and that the outcome will be good, then he would enroll his sons in the public schools NOW as a showing to all that he is confident that he will succeed in what he is promising.

    Again, if our public schools are not good enough for Fenty’s sons then they are not good enough for your children and we should pull our children out and enroll them in private schools. In sum, do as the mayor is doing not what he is saying!
