[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a Lafayette parent who is vehemently opposed to the idea of moving the entire school to our trailers for 2 years.

[b]HOWEVER - what if they only moved part of the school? PK-1 or whatever. They would then need less trailers at murch, would only need some of the Lafayette trailers, thus allowing the  play space to be rebuilt and some of the field to be reclaimed...

Agree with this.  They could move families north of Murch to Lafayette and south of Murch could swing on-site or go to Chesapeake Park.  Or the upper grades could stay at Murch and the lower ones go to Chesapeake.  Or the north families use Lafayette trailers and the south families use the Hearst trailers.  An influx of 300 students is a lot less daunting than an influx of 600.[/quote]

Hearst has only one trailer ...[/quote]

[b]There are traffic jams each morning currently at Hearst for drop off.   [/b]No way they could handle another 50+ drop offs.  If only the southern Murch families did not oppose the boundary change to Hearst, they'd already be enjoying brand new, state of the art facilities...[/quote]

This is because over 80% of the Hearst students live out of boundaries, the vast majority east of the Park and nearly all arrive by car.  Some even arrive in Maryland cars (hmmm?).  This is no way for DCPS to run a "neighborhood school system."[/quote]
