Why is BPS so bad and what should be done to improve it? (Boston: new construction, move to)

[msRB311]

Godin is French, Dalton is English, Akeley is German, Shepard is English or Scottish.

What also does it matter that the tuition has doubled? It it still lower than the other ISL schools. The tuition is $36,900. Thayer is $56,295, Milton is $64,800, st sebs is $56,000. RL is actually more desirable/competitive to get into because of the lower tuition.

Also because a group of privilidged boys mainly from the suburbs at RL told you that Westie is racist you take their word for it?

You keep trying to make this point that Irish people are racist or something.

You seem to be so focused on who the racist people in the city are and assume they’re all Irish. There aren’t even many Irish Americans living in the city anymore. You just want to focus on the ones still there and call them racist ? Why don’t you focus on people who get arrested, section 8 and ebt cards.

West Roxbury was heavily steeped in anti-black sentiment back in the day. How do you think it got the nickname ”whitebury.”? And it's certainly no surprise they voted heavily for JB. Who else would they vote for?

Dalton and Shepard are commonly found in Ireland and spread there long ago.

Godin is French but he was an Irish American, and Akeley was also an Irish American. Both had very stereotypically Irish first names but I'm trying to break up the names at least a bit here.

Again, I didn't say these kids were racist...you're being weird atp.

Dalton and Shepard are old English.

It just gets tiring seeing your rants about Irish Bostonians and how they're all racists. It'd be like saying something like all Black Bostonians are on Section 8.

[msRB311]

You're clearly more interested in 55+ year old racists in West Roxbury than you are about things like this:

never said that

[msRB311]

You certainly insinuate it many times in that they have been responsible for the city's racist issues.

No. I'm equally interested in both. You brought both of these topics up btw.

Given everything I don't see that much help for Boston Public Schools. If your private schools and your charter schools and metco are siphoning off students to other districts I don't know what you see that's left. State receivership would be the answer if it actually worked.

Maybe we should just expand metco to the point where most students just leave the district. Bpsr shrunk by so much they're completely empty school buildings all across Boston. It takes time money and energy to maintain these buildings in the city doesn't really receive anything for them. The Redevelopment Authority might have some ideas was going to take a while to do that.
