[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t Hardy step up to the plate and reconfigure the school property to provide for a playing field on site?! They may not have if by September, but if they start working it (including downtown) then they could have a nice field by 2021-22.  [/quote]

Once again, public schools aren't independent entities like private schools. "Hardy" can't step up and do anything, they are reliant on DCPS and the entire DC government. The same DC government that just decided it would rather give away a $20 million+ public asset than let Hardy use it. [/quote]

+1. The more relevant question is why Maret can’t step up to the plate and get its own field with the 50k/year they charge in tuition, like other self-respecting private schools.[/quote]

Because they don't need to.  They already have a field to use.  [/quote]

A public field gifted to them at a below market rate  to them by a soon to be indicted politician whose soon attended Maret is not a option most legitimate private schools would choose.[/quote]
