Question about Sasha and Malia

[GreenPartyVoter]

Will they go to school in D.C. or have tutors? I was just a kid myself the last time there were kids at the WH, so I don't know what they did.

1. Chelsea went to a private school

I think Amy Carter did too. Would you put your kids in a public school in DC?

2. I might put my kids in a public school in DC, yes.

For one, security isn't going to be an issue; any school the Obama kids attend will have a secure perimeter.

I'd hope they'd weigh their options and seriously consider a public school.

3. Chelsea went to a Quaker School.

They have to be worried about security.

An excellent school

6. I saw/heard some speculation on ABC this morning.

They will most likely be going to a private school. I can totally understand why, due to security issues.

There was some plastic face on who was claiming that all of the private schools were stumbling over themselves in order to secure the Obama girls. It was kind of disgusting (i.e. what a boon for students at these schools to be associated with the Obama girls).

I also learned that Amy Carter went to the D.C. public schools. I never knew that!

I do not really care where they go... I just want them safe!
