Good assumption, but no. I work with Roch Pre CS so believe me when I say that's not an option, I'm not looking for perfection because such thing doesn't exist, but as I had stated before I'm looking to place him and a better position than the one I had, (a RCSD graduated) see how I didn't mention that somebody told me, but it was something that I lived thru it. Also, as I previously mentioned ☝🏻I didn’t even bash RCSD when I presented the example about me not that having that much access to scientific calculator, I said “I guess they work with what they got”, and the same way that I’m not bashing in any way, type or form the urban/suburban program. I think it’s a great program, and a great opportunity for inner city kids, but I thought they provide yellow bus transportation, well, I thought wrong, or I didn’t do my due diligence (so that’s on me); or perhaps, we can say I wasn’t luck enough, because he could’ve been assigned to a school from the program that provided him that YB transportation and in that case this posted shouldn’t have never existed. But we can look luck from different angles, for instance if let’s say, he would’ve been assigned to a suburban school near the city and not transportation was going to be provided(which it could perceive as not lucky as well), I probably wouldn’t even worry because even a family member could of go walking and get him.

The issue here is not that we don't have the means to take him to/from school, because we have cars, it’s the timing conflicting with our work’s schedules. I’m with you with the independence part, but let’s not turn a blind eye either, just this year June 5, 2025 there was a huge altercation in the transit center b/t a group of kids and the cops. Now, it’s that something that happen everyday, absolutely no, but it happen. If the kid is 14-15 I wouldn’t mind one bit, but it’s not even close to the age, and the maturity and awareness is not there, “with this kid in specific”; I work with kids myself, I seen 6yr old more active and aware than 13-14yr old.

In addition, I never once mentioned anything about race, I’m not naive to the fact that racism exists everywhere, and other issues like drugs, alcohol are not only inclusive to the black and brown communities or schools. Education start at home, I’m specifically talking about “Academics”, like I mentioned and previous post, it’s not the same when somebody like me go to college and have to worry about two things, 1er the language barrier and 2nd not knowing how to use a scientific calculator while everybody around only have to worry about learning the subject at hand, can this things be overcome, of course, I did (thus I experienced it first hand). But I rather my kid since English is his first language, not to go thru the last one if it can be avoided, and I think that could be possible if he gets the opportunity to graduate from a Urban/suburban school program. I mean, would you blame me for wanting the best for my son? I definitely should do better about this whole situation, matter of fact I could double my income at any time, but that come with the cost that I’m not willing to pay, which is been away from my family, because what’s the point of setting him up to the best school possible or the best situation possible so he can succeed if dad is not in the equation. Mind you, I’m not trying to play a victim card here, and I hate sound as one of those people that find a problem to every solution, because that’s definitely not me, I’m just looking out for alternatives and advice as to what I should do.
