[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s sad they are tearing down a beautiful older building and that they are wasting so much taxpayer money on a new building that isn’t even needed to feed the ego of Karl Frisch.  We need to replace every School Board member who doesn’t object to this travesty. [/quote]

And the planned new school building is very ugly. It is so sad we are loosing a historic New Deal era school house. It could've been repurposed as anything--a community center for example. Or even renovated into a modern school. For a school system that never tears down school buildings--and always does phased renovations--this project makes no sense. Is as if the people behind the scenes wanted a gleaming new school building to pad a resume. [/quote]

I don’t doubt there are situations where tearing down an existing building and building a new school costs less. But the reality is that Dunn Loring was pitched as a renovation of an existing building and then they said it would need to be torn down. It just speaks to how little attention Karl Frisch had paid to the logistics of a new Dunn Loring school and the lack of candor with the public. Helping  Shrevewood was never his real goal. It’s sickening.  [/quote]
