[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is proposing taking away Duke Ellington. The school would still exist and in a potentially more central and more convenient location, with maybe even nicer facilities.[/quote]Ellington isn't going anywhere. These kids have to stay late into the evening to do their art and they're safer in that location than other places in the city. If you guys want to move Ellington, why don't you talk to the administration, students, and families and see how they feel about it? If you could convince them it was in their interest, maybe you'd have some success but right now it just looks like a power grab.[/quote] Yes, thank you! The idea that "Ellington used to be Western, and it should be again to benefit the families in Georgetown, Palisades, and Glover Park - because we are the most important elements in the system" is more repellent on an emotional level than its proponents seem to understand.
