[quote=Anonymous]I find the Bailey's situation abhorrent (and I'm not even a Bailey's parent). How has FCPS screwed this up so badly. I can't help but thing part of the issue is the demographic. They never would have let the situation get this desperate in a wealthier school. As for the vertical school, I think people need to get over their suburban dreams of schools with rolling green spaces and white picket fences. This is a semi-urban area and getting more so. Same with the Tyson's area. There aren't giant spaces to use. The key is to make sure there is some way to get the kids outdoors (i.e. roof playground or courtyard) and to have space to play. Lots of kids go to school in urban environments and do just fine.[/quote]
