[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No sympathy here having been at DCPS without these luxuries. Same goes for charters who make do with no gym, library, cafeteria, etc.[/quote] Charters neglect arts by choice. Name dcps schools without room for art and music rooms outside of the fillmore schools.[/quote] No not by choice. Because the $3000 per year per student they get for facilities acquisition and maintenance doesn't begin cover their renovation and maintenance costs. So the instructional dollars cover facilities costs too, and when building they often cut out anything deemed non-essential to keep square footage low. The more established charters that have been around for 10+ years can start to add these things (eg WL built a gym on its 10 year anniversary, Cap City after 15 years has a library and arts space).
