| Why are people still talking about this? We were a whittle family that left in the middle of the second semester and I am still not interested in talking about it anymore. |

You sure? |

Because there has been no closure and the situation is just wrong and people who should be punished somehow keep failing up. It’s not ok |

“Come find me at my Hampton mansion I am still living in, and we can throw hands. Imma keep failing up and taking names! See y’all next year for Whittle Elementary. The best school in the world for your whittle ones. We are buying City Center with our handsome start-up funding. ” -Chris Whittle |

Because it's the biggest scandal to hit DC schools in memory. Well the biggest scandal since the former whittle exec left to be HOS at Maret. That after his wife solicited private 'donations' to fund Whittle ops while the school rapidly circled the drain It's just scandals wrapped up in scandals. But yeah, officer, nothing to see here. Move on people. |

It's the most expensive school in Whittle meets the most overrated school in Maret. Matter and anti-matter. Boom!

| Anyone have a sense of how many students were enrolled in Whittle by the end of last year? Curious to hear how many families have been impacted. |

Recent publications report being told it was around 130. |

Whittle's developed tons of connections over the years. Here he is at Meridian International Center fooling people in fall 2018.
He's a master of dropping names that sound a lot more impressive than they actuall are and intoning platitudes that sound vaguely visionary and insightful and get everybody nodding "yeah." Good to periodically remind oneself of the damage a person like that can do, probably. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mrSQ0HKiqo&t=10s |

| Is the school open for the coming year? |

No. Chris Whittle is off plotting his next big scam and Dennis Bisgaard is feeling lucky he escaped like a rat from sinking ship only to land at a school that doesn’t care that he was associated with the biggest joke in education in the last decade |

Nothing is funny about Whittle. |

So Monica is getting paid second, after the teachers, per Whittle’s email? I sort of doubt that, pretty sure she was paid as a priority. Can’t wait for all that to come out
