[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry people - Filmore does not make sense for the school system as a whole.
This is one area where I support DCPS. It is about basic equity.
We would all love to have our kids go to Filmore but most DCPS kids don't have this opportunity.
Art and music $$ need to be spread out equally. I don't believe for a minute that there is not one inch of spare space 
at these schools. Deal is at least 30% over capacity but somehow they find space for activities.
Everyone has to make concessions including the Filmore schools. If there really isn't space, walk kids to the closest school or to Hardy or Duke Ellington.
There are ways to figure this out rather than just stonewalling.

The problem with the equity argument as framed is that the logical conclusion is that no school can ever be better than the worst, in every aspect. That's a race to the bottom.[/quote]

This. Since key and stoddert wont have art and music rooms, no other schools can have them.[/quote]
