[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So why isn't Bridges, Bryia and...Creative Minds which has a large SN population (29%?)

It seems weird to outfit DCI which is just going to leave anyway when another school may need it.  Or, there is another school I've heard which has almost 40% SN kids.

It seems like this was just thrown together.  I'd probably sign it (and share) if it was just Bridges or had more logic.  But DCI (as a holding patter until their "good space" opens) turns me off of this.[/quote]

Right now Bridges can't fill the whole space.  They are growing to 5th grade, but they are only at 1st so far.  So they need a partner to help pay the rent for a couple of years.  That's why YY was at the old location near Providence Hospital.  The building belonged to Potomac Lighthouse, but they couldn't fill it yet, so they let YY sublet to help pay the rent and YY got incubation space.  This is the same kind of arrangement.  DCI needs swing space until Walter Reed is finished.  Bridges/Briya needs a tenant to pay the bills while they grow into their space.  It's not really an unusual arrangement when a school acquires a facility.[/quote]

And Creative Minds has a space for next year.  Why would it move when it doesn't have to?  [/quote]
