[quote=Anonymous]It's amazing how adept our authorities are pitting us against our and in the process distracting us from the grand failure that is their performance. From discussing the proposed swing to Meyer with a number of parents and teachers, the source of frustration is not the decision itself, but the lack of consultation and transparency provided by DCPS. At this point, there has next to information provided to the community about the mechanics of the swing other than the fact that it will be Meyer. Yet, just over the past month, we heard, among other things, that: the Mayor had decided against Meyer as a swing space (then contradicted by the DME); that the DESA renovations are well behind schedule and that there is next chance that Meyer will be vacated next year; and that Meyer itself is a derelict facility with collapsing ceilings and floors. Given all of this, why anyone in their right mind would trust DCPS - headed by a transitional administration - to do anything other than make a complete hash of the swing and endanger kids in the process is far beyond many of us. A well-planned swing to Meyer would be one thing, but few in the H-A community are putting much faith in DCPS to get it alright on the night at this point. Hence, we're probably looking at a mass exodus and the decimation of one of the best elementary schools in DC. @dontwingdaswing [/quote]
