[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Come on.  Stop drinking the DCLS Kool-Aid.  Selfish, lazy staff are a chronic problem.  To be sure there are some good, even a few outstanding, teachers.  But a lot of them would never give up their free parking so they students have a place on school property to play.[/quote]

This has ... what to do with Maret and now other private schools locking in a sweetheart deal on a public soccer field?[/quote]

+1 As someone mentioned up thread, if Maret wanted to live the values it claims to espouse, it could dig up its parking lot and put it underground as Sidwell did and have room for a regulation size playing field.  But they have decided it’s better that they mooch off DC taxpayers.

DC taxpayers have been paying for Bowser’s friends to live large off of no-bid DC contracts (with no results) in their PG mini-mansions.  Meanwhile the Maret community has footed the cost of actual physical infrastructure improvements at Jelleff.  Your kids benefit from those improvements paid for by Maret.  If there are moochers in this equation, they are not from Maret.[/quote]

Maret paid for improvements in 2009, and got what they agreed to at the time. Nobody is objecting to that deal. Now Maret is trying to get more than they agreed to in 2009, that is what people are objecting to. If someone agrees to a deal, and then later tries to change the terms, I would call that mooching.
