[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well to be fair. and I am a GDS alum, the lower and middle school are now right on top of the new houses that have built since I graduated. GDS was there first, but how do you expand without reducing the already small footprint for outdoor play. One could argue that the school outgrew that space a long time ago. I wish that it had been able to buy Mt. Vernon when it was for sale or bought the old Cafritz estate which eventually became Field. [/quote]

Yes, it's interesting how both Field and St Pats managed to buy such beautiful and expensive properties and GDS got nothing. Wonder what that says about the GDS community - both current and alum.  [b]Why so unwilling to spend some cash for better facilities? [/b] [/quote]

I have no dog in this fight but some schools choose to focus their investments more on the intangibles - curriculum and programs, staff compensation and professional development, scholarships/financial aid, etc.  I don't know if that's the case with GDS...[/quote]
