[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP please read this, grow some compassion, and stop worrying about homeless kids overwhelming your school. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/a-hidden-world-desperation-and-cramped-living-for-homeless-families-in-dc-motels/2016/01/28/279adfda-b4d8-11e5-a76a-0b5145e8679a_story.html[/quote] It is possible to do both: support homeless kids AND be concerned about the local school's resources to support them. It is Muriel Bowser's job to have the foresight to consider the needs of ALL of the citizens. With regard to the shelter, she is not doing that...yet. And perhaps this demonstrates Bowser does not have the competence to govern effectively: in the past two weeks, Ward 3 has seen three jaw-dropping, incompetent hits from her Administration: no notice of not enough money to support Murch's long-planned renovation; no notice of plans to end Fillmore Art Center's 42-year legacy in Ward 3; no notice of decision to erect a homeless shelter full of school-age kids. I would have expected such foolishness from 1980's DC, but I perhaps foolishly expected better from Bowser.[/quote]
