[quote=Anonymous]Cameron complains about the lack of field space in NW DC. Go and have a look at a satellite image (via, say, Google Maps) of the area around Maret. WIS has a full size field just over 1,000 feet from Maret. Beauvoir / NCS has no less than three full-size fields just 1,500 feet away. Sidwell Friends has one a mile away. AU has multiple fields under 2 miles away. Yet Maret opts that it’s best option to “stay competitive” with the other DC elite schools - all the whole keeping K-12 on a common campus - is to crowd DCPS and B&GC kids out of what should be their space. Once again, Cameron complains about the lack of field space. In a city facing a climate, transportation and affordable housing crisis. I wonder whose homes Cameron thinks should be bulldozed to provide those fields? What trees should go? Does he think that this city needs more SUVs shuttling kids to and from games and practices?
