[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's not that our ward 3 children don't deserve a good school close to home. However, as a (high) taxpayer, I don't see how a decent sized DCPS elementary school on Foxhall could be filled in the area without cannibalizing the other elementary schools in the immediate area. [/quote] Cannibalizing, or relieving crowding? Every school in Ward 3 is overcrowded. What's going to happen if the projections are true and DC adds 30,000 students in the next 10 years? DC is going to need to either add an average of 250 kids to every existing school, or open about 50 new schools. The Ward 3 schools can't take any more kids, let alone 250 each.[/quote]
