[quote=Anonymous]What about schools where the entire building is substandard, not up to code, leaks, poor working HVAC systems where one part of the building is an oven the other a freezer and the list could go on? As a parent in a school that keeps getting pushed farther down the list in timing, but ranked higher on the list in need of renovations, it's really hard for me to have sympathy for loss of funding over a gym/cafeteria. I'm not saying the school is not worthy of the renovations and doesn't deserve them, but it is hard to stomach. I'm reading a lot of comments about "equal funding for all schools" but once your school is finished will you help speak for other school communities that are challenging DC/DCPS, have grossly inadequate facilities and don't have as loud as a voice? And whose concerns are being pushed aside and given the run around? -a DCPS parent [/quote]
