[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see the problem here. So what if they delay an auditorium for a couple of years? [/quote]

Are they delaying the courses that require an auditorium? No. They are trying to pretend like every school will play nice and share what limited space they have available. It’s such as a shame how little MCPS values or understands the performing arts. Have you not paid attention to decades of brain research? [/quote]

Most kids who are in the arts do it outside of mcps. [/quote]

No no no no - arts and music in school is essential [/quote]

They are good but most programs are ok at best and kids who are good are in private lessons and outside organizations too.  Be real, you think the top playing musicians only do mcps.  Nope.  [/quote]

Sorry MCPS kids, no arts or music in school for you, you might enjoy it, you might benefit from it, but if you're not the best, some random on DCUM thinks there's no point in it for you.[/quote]

The schools can still have it without an auditorium.  That is the point. Private orchestras and theater companies do it all the time.  And mcps schools can share the auditorium.  It’s easy to get from wj to Woodward, for example.  [/quote]

Look, y'all who keep saying share the WJ spaces: these kids are from Northwood. Do you think it is at all convenient for them to have extra late hours at WJ? Plus the WJ fields and auditorium are about 100% booked. [/quote]
