[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When is DCPS going to decide what they are doing with the new school?  It was supposed to be announced in June![/quote]

Um. They're a little busy at the moment.  :roll:  Seriously, don't hold your breath. There are a gazillion things that are much more urgent for many more kids.

Roughly 75% of DCPS kids are poor/disadvantaged. 80% percent are not white. 15% have diagnosed disabilities requiring special education.

Then there's things like the digital divide, gun violence and trauma, language barriers, looming evictions, transportation issues, higher cases of and deaths from COVID, stressors like police shooting (WaPo article today), delta variant spread....What am I missing? Oh right. Access to food through schools

Why should DCPS spend more tme and money on future buildings for kids who could probably Zoom for another year from the comfort of some of the nicest homes in the city.

They don't have a solid plan for Foxhall. It's a nice to have problem for a system facing life and death  issues today.

Chill out for s bit.
