[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Operating budget is higher because kids have more teachers. They take all the regular high school classes (7 per day) which DCPS finds. The private foundation raises money to pay for the other three classes - the daily arts block. [/quote] It seems then that DCPS should be able to cut back its funding commitment and reallocate scarce dollars where they can benefit more students. And there's just n way that DC should be paying 100% (more like 230% when you consider cost overruns to date) of Ellington's renovation costs. If Ellington wants to spend like the Ritz, then let the "private foundation" fund the overruns and the excesses.[/quote]
