How many are public schools? And why is DCPS renting out its roof space when envronmentally and health conscious localities like Bar Harbor are banning cell towers within 1500 feet of a school??

Bar Harbor? One tiny town in Maine? When I think environmentally and health conscous I think of places like Portland, SF, Davis, Madison, and lots of others. Bar Harbor? Got any more?

When I think of Davis, I think of a dusty backwater in California. Modesto with a second-rate UC branch.

It's a good question whether DCPS would be so quick to stick a cell phone tower on a school that is predominately white with his SES students.

Davis is a great school, particularly their biology, veterinary, ag programs, research...and no I didn't go there because yes it is flat and hot and after volunteering for a vet's clinic it turns out a lot of sick and injured animals come to the vet, there is blood and pus and poop and you get neglected animals whose owners won't pay their bills, it made me sad, wasn't the happy healthy just here for our shots experience I had fantasized...

Can you think of another DCPS school west of Rock Creek Park that permitted a cell phone tower to be constructed on the school roof? I can't. Parents wouldn't stand for it, in a building where their kids spend 7 hours a day, sometimes more. Instead, DCPS monetizes a school with a very high OOB and minority enrollment.

Bar Harbor is on an island is adjacent to Acadia National Park, so for some time they've been at the forefront of environmental issues, including sustainability and planning. I'd defer to the State of Maine a lot faster than I would to some bureaucrat in the DC government who was probably trying to do a favor for the politically connected.

No, we don't need anything of the sort. I am in-bound for Mann. I am comfortable with the direction and pace at which Hardy is moving and I am confident that the desired results will be achieved within the next several years.

And do you plan to send your kids to Hardy?

Maybe Hardy can get rid of the cell phone tower when they get rid of those uniforms!

This thread is really jumping the rails -- or the shark -- or whatever.

Has the state of Maine banned them, or Bar Harbor?

How about Virginia, Maryland, California, Oregon?

Which is precisely what Hardy WILL be within five years.

And then activist parents will make DCPS terminate the tower lease and remove it.
