[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearst has 300 kids, right? How many after the construction and how many are at Murch?[/quote]

287 kids at Hearst this year.  Construction capacity set at 325 +/-.  Murch enrollment this year (per DCPS site) is 626.[/quote]

Murch is also going to get hit by The HUGE new apartment building at Conn and Military. Those will all feed to Murch. [/quote]

If Murch can't renovate for the capacity it needs they should turn the CC Community Center by the library into an early childhood center. That playground by the library is great for younger grades and that space could take the pressure off Murch and Lafayette, which will continue to see more students.

Also if Murch can't build on the park land, they could give the teachers street parking permits (they are doing this in Glover Park now) and build on the teachers' parking lot. Or build underground parking for the teachers. Parking is a teachers union contract stipulation.[/quote]
