[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always wondered why there were no neighborhood meetings abiut how the school intends to do drop-off and pick up of kids in a K-12 school with no dedicated school lane. It’s not like people can drop on Connecticut Avenue and I can’t imagine Secret Service is going to be pleased if Van Ness is backed up in front of the embassies.  It’s well known that these negotiations take a long time to work out— look at GDS, Lowell and Cathedral Schools, where there are have been countless parent committees and meetings dedicated to addressing this.

Any car pool drop off would likely be off of Tilden, not Van Ness.

That said, I feel bad for the teachers who have said they were leaving for this school. It likely won't be open at this site by the fall. If DCRA past performance is any indication, it will take at least 4-5 months to get through permits.[/quote]

I'm assuming they will be paid no matter what, so it's an unexpected paid sabbatical.[/quote]

Tilden is a residential street, why would the assumption be that drop-off traffic is funneled there?[/quote]

Because that is where the main access point for the circle by the daycare and the main garage are located. Tilden at that point has a median, it isn't some quiet residential street, by any measure.[/quote]
