[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did Murch get money for underground parking then?[/quote]

What makes you think it did? Murch has no final design yet. Radio silence from DCPS on what is happening there. But the funding for the messed up swing space debacle is [b]coming from the transportation budget[/b].[/quote]

Which should probably be going to Metro.

As a charter school parent whose kids are in crappy facilities I'm just over the complaining from DCPS parents about substandard gyms, cafeterias and playgrounds. [/quote]

When I studied Political Science, I had a professor of Palestinian origin who joked that Palestinians turn every issue into a discussion of Palestine. As a result, when asked to conduct studies on Polar Bears, topics such as "The Impact of Climate Change on Polar Bears" and "Rates of Polar Bear Reproduction" were joined by "Polar Bears and the Palestinian Issue". Sometimes charter school parents remind me of Palestinians and polar bears.

The need for safe and decent facilities at Shepherd has nothing to do with your charter school or your current level of tolerance for discussion of that matter. In fact, if you are not interested in the topic, I'm surprised you made the effort to click on the thread. But, in case you haven't noticed, I am just over anyone suggesting that parents should simply accept substandard and dangerous school buildings. To the contrary, everyone should be outraged that children are forced to eat surrounded by rat droppings.
