[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CSX tunnel project is by no means a done deal. The pols are still debating its merits. Even Kaya Henderson can see that there's no point in re-opening Van Ness as another DCPS school withering on the vine in the face of charter competition. They've got Amidon for that locally. As long as enough funds to renovate come through, the school culture is dominated by professional parents, good admins and teachers screened by parent hiring panels come in, support for advanced learners is built into the curriculum, and the PTA can afford to pay for inputs the school will need to keep up with others where at least two-thirds of the kids test proficient or advanced (the Waterfront developers will help there), Van Ness will serve the Navy Yard neighborhood well. Elementary school management isn't rocket science. [/quote] Ha! A lot of "ifs"! I feel you might be overly optimistic.[/quote]
