[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If DCPS cut out more non-classroom related fluff -- think of all the "diversity coordinators" and "esteem specialists", etc. -- they could afford to keep Fillmore open. Studies show how beneficial quality arts and music programming are to students.[/quote] I understand the sentiment, but I also think there's no need to pit social emotional learning against the arts. Kids need both. THEY NEED BOTH. In fact, they're mutually supportive. I can think of many other areas of bloat in the DC budget--especially when property taxes are bringing in more money than ever.[/quote]
