[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m glad that the decisions have finally been made but don’t understand why it took nine months of total inactivity on the part of DCPS (after the CWG had submitted its final recommendations) for the decisions to be made.[/quote] Prob because this was the last choice that became the default solution when all other options faced too much neighborhood resistance. GDS space was part of a negotiation about one new elementary school and one new high school but they couldn't make the elementary school work and they probably thought that moving the middle school to the GDS space would be politically fraught as well. They could have put the new elementary school at GDS. That's what the neighbors wanted, but that would not have addressed the worst overcrowding which is at the high school level.[/quote]
