[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Woosh. Almost hurt my neck there on that goal shift. Adding seats at a new ES can help get kids out of trailers. [/quote] It could, in theory, but it won't at "Dunn Loring ES," a site surrounded by under-enrolled elementary schools. The only way it will ever get kids out of trailers would be through massive and unnecessary boundary shifts that will tear apart some schools and result in other kids having much further trips to school. It is a total fiasco. I really do wonder if it's Karl responding on this thread. He has a well-earned reputation among his colleagues for playing with the truth and you can see that in some of the comments here as well. [/quote] LOL. Definitely not KF. If you want to get kids out of trailers and don't want to fund additions to various schools, then boundary changes are necessary. They happen everywhere - it's ridiculous to completely oppose any boundary changes. [/quote] For all the talk about Shrevewood’s enrollment decline, they still have classes out in trailers. Either the goal needs to be that there are enough seats for everyone, or there is an [b]acknowledgment that trailers aren’t that big of a deal[/b].[/quote] But trailers are a big deal. My youngest was put in a trailer - or, should I clarify: a temporary trailer - at Kent Gardens. His teacher explained to me that same trailer had been in place and in use at Kent Gardens for 7 years. SEVEN YEARS. The teacher eventually saw a specialist for respiratory problems. Turns out her trailer had a massive black mold infestation in all the walls and ceiling. And the teacher was pregnant at the time the black mold was discovered. Karl Frisch has diverted money which could have ameliorated this problem, and so many others. But he does not care about the well-being of FCPS students; only his own political ambitions.[/quote] The number of trailers has gone down in Providence schools under Frisch. [/quote] +1. The new school will reduce reliance on trailers even further. My kid spent entire 6th grade in trailers at Shrevewood, that’s not a good place to learn.[/quote]
