It wasn't a "school" at all; it was a PK4-K (1?) program within Peabody (hence the name). Just a couple of classrooms. That's it. DCPS is now expanding it to include PS3 and go up to 5 and making it its own school. [/quote]

More like 18 years, and it occupied a full floor in the Peabody building -- 4 classrooms with amazing views, aging facility, and no restrooms on its floor.  And without getting into semantics, it functioned as an independent entity at Peabody.  A "program" would suggest that it was somehow connected to Peabody beyond sharing the physical structure.  SWS had its own administrative staff.  SWS shared a few services with Peabody due to colocation (ie food service and librarian), but not much different than it does now with nurse for SWS and CHM @ Logan.

the new grade levels are no different in scale.  Smallish classes of 2 per level eventually through 5th.  It will max out around 350 students[/quote]
