[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why was Northwood not renovated before the school re-opened 20 years ago?[/quote] Same reason SSIMS and Sligo Creek ES weren't renovated from the old Blair building around the same time to a level that would make them comparable facilities to others that were new or renovated atound that time. It was Silver Spring/Wheaton instead of Bethesda/Potomac. Not enough juice (political $), fewer squeaky wheels among parents and no BOE champion like Pat O'Neill was.[/quote] Most county building funds have been focused on new builds to address expanding population up county. Down County (whether it's the rich or poor parts) have been bottom of the priority list, they just add portables and patch up old buildings. [/quote]
