[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maddening. Our school's modernization will not even include everything originally planned, yet it is millions and millions of dollars over budget. We're new to DC and DCPS and this was just shocking--it's as if we're in Chicago, Detroit or some other city notorious for corruption.[/quote] You really ARE new to the District, that is clear. The District gov't has a long, storied history of corruption and mismanagement. Especially in the area of self-dealing. It's better now than the 80s and early 90s. But, some of the legacy DC employees from the Barry years are still either in place, or they are hiring their friends and relatives before they retire. So the culture persists. So as not to take this thread off track, I will stop now.[/quote]
