[quote=Anonymous]From today's NW Current:

--The new addition will cost $4.85 million  to add 6 classrooms, 5 small group spaces and two sets of bathrooms for EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION.

--This is in addition to a $30 million renovation that took place LESS THAN 3 years ago.

--Work will START IMMEDIATELY on weekends and holidays and take place during the school day after spring break. Work will continue over summer and be COMPLETED BY AUGUST 15, 2014.

--Principal says enrollment at her school has grown (Yup, across the board all over the city) and will continue to grow so they be over capacity. (Yeah, sucks doesn't it?)

From the commission: "The addition will serve a vital community need…" (Ahem, for just a very small part of the community, your community.  Not the DCPS community.)

Quote from neighbor: "..it was really a horrendous project to build that school."  "Workers arrived at 5:45. They played their radios in their cars. They woke up our families." (That's not horrendous. You want to know horrendous? My kids school is infested with mice. My kids school hasn't had phone service for two weeks because some of an idiot in DC Central office either screwed up by either not paying the bill or canceling all the 202-282 phone exchange numbers.
