[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both the Stoddert community and the children served by the homeless shelter would benefit form these kids attending Stoddert. But there is no room at stoddery, or at any NWDC school. Instead of stuffing more trailers at these schools, DCPS needs to do the logical thing of reclaiming the old Hardy school on Foxhall and opening it as an elementary school to relieve overcrowding at Key, Stoddert, and elsewhere. They can cancel the current lease if they wsnt. Then there will be room for these kids, as well as arts, etc at NW schools.[/quote] It's sort of nutty to be talking about opening another elementary school in Upper NW, when there are schools that are majority OOB (Eaton, approx. 60%; Hearst - approx. 80% !), which means that there is plenty of excess capacity to absorb IB increases by throttling back OOB enrollment. Even Stoddert has OOB slots.[/quote]
