[quote=Anonymous]Due to my kids’ rec basketball and ASA futsal I am frequently inside ACPS schools (and in some of the attached rec centers) from lower schools all the way to the high school several times a week. This weekend I was at GW and Jeff Houston, last weekend Hammond, JH and MCVS, before that Leonard Chick, GW (you get the idea). I am usually only in the gyms and adjacent areas, like the bathroom. My kids do not attend ACPS so I don’t know what occurs during a school day.

9 times out of 10 the girls bathrooms are disgusting, especially at Hammond and GW. GW had several stalls with just a hole where the toilet used to be, no soap, no paper towels and the trash was overflowing. The floor in the main gym STILL has a section that is broken, almost like a hole in the floor and I am so anxious some kid is going to break their ankle in it.

Hammond, bathroom full of trash, a sink missing, no soap, no hot water.

JH seems the nicest probably because it’s the newest and the bathroom is very small by the gym and it’s next to several admin offices so no funny kid business probably goes on in there.

It’s painful to see the environment these kids are in for their school. My tax dollars should be going to make a better environment for them. It really is shameful that Alexandria government can get laser focused on the most minute and mundane issue but allow their public school system to treat the kids this way. It was as serious reason why we went private.
