Janney -- $70 million
MLK -- $65 million
Dorothy Height -- $63 million
Garfield -- $60.5 million
Anacostia -- $60 million[/quote]

Some of these schools only have a couple hundred students. Maybe they should be closed and consolidated instead of given fancy makeovers. [/quote]

Because if we close the school and take a wrecking ball to the building, we get the money back, right? [/quote]
