[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools have been overcapacity for years the roads are impossible to travel on now in the city. City officials have seriously lost their minds. When city council was asked about class sizes and overcapacity issues years ago and asked what their plans are with all the 10 newish affordable housing buildings the literally sat there and blinked. You can't make this incompetence up.[/quote] I was present at the meeting during the PY (Potomac Yard) build out where he stood up when asked where the new school for the new neighborhood was going to go. He said, paraphrasing, "These are mostly smaller apartments and people in apartments don't have kids." ACHS/TCW is literally the single biggest HS in the entire state at 4800 students. It's 15% over capacity right now and the kids that 'don't live in apartments' will be hitting HS in 3 years.[/quote]
