[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] -It's not as great a spot as it looks. DCPS does not want it. The building and lot is tiny and kids are packed in as it is. No gym or cafeteria. Limited use of the DPR park. It has to have fixed capacity. -Did OP forget to mention the park and playground are part of DPR, not DCPS? A DCPS school would have to apply for use like everybody else. [/quote] The building is exactly the same as the original buildings at Key, Stoddert and Mann. They were all built at the same time from the same plans. DCPS has managed to make them into thriving schools. The lot is larger than the lot for Key. Many DCPS and DPR sites co-locate. Hearst, Stoddert, Shepherd just to name a few. DCPS and charters get top priority for DPR facilities, second only to DPR, and since there is no DPR programming at that site they would be number one. Lab on the other hand doesn't meet the 80% DC resident requirement so they are at the lowest priority level. [/quote]
