[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To my Chevy Chase neighbors, please tone down the rhetoric, you are making us all look nasty and selfish. That is not the neighborhood I chose to live in.

Yes it's sort of shocking to see what people would put their names too. But then again, as a long time reader of that listserv, maybe I shouldn't be. [/quote]

Yes, I'm dismayed at the time of the posts on the Chevy Chase Listserve especially, and the sense of self entitlement some feel (and put their name to). This is not ideal for any community and this news has been sprung on Murch (maybe even more so than Lafayette). [/quote]

And to correct a previous assertion here on this thread, the bulk of the CC listserv isolationist commentary is from Lafayette parents and just general youngish affected homeowners in "the envelope" -- not the usual six CC listserv gadflies who are retired without school- age kids.

But regardless of their age, 100% of the commenters have forgotten that their beloved "Chevy Chase community" extends past Nevada Ave.  Chevy Chase continues all the way to 41st (yes) and includes [i]hundreds of Murch families[/i]. Who are on the listserv too, and reading this shit. [/quote]

Yes, this is the start of my favorite posting so far:

[quote]Hello all, we recently bought a house in Chevy Chase DC specifically for our son to attend Lafayette starting with kindergarten in Fall 2016. Tied for greatest draw with the neighborhood's old-fashioned charm and Lafayette's 'arts integration' curriculum was the Lafayette Park setting of the school. [b]We are horrified to hear that Lafayette Park may host Murch for two years during Murch renovation. The trailers made sense for Lafayette's renovation, but not for Murch[/b], for all the reasons detailed so well by other posters. (Thank you to the articulate members of our community!)[/quote][/quote]
