[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So... when do we close Coolidge?[/quote] Why on earth would you close a school that just got renovated and had testing gains last year? Yes the scores are still ghastly but there is a bit of progress, and things in the feeder elementaries and Wells middle are looking up. There would be massive blowback if they closed a newly renovated school, that makes zero sense. DCPS seldom closes neighborhood schools because they still have to provide a by-right school for every child in the zone within a reasonable commute. They can't fit any more kids into Wilson, and they can't all fit into Roosevelt. It's really far from Dunbar and Cardozo. So they basically can't close Coolidge. They could replace the leadership and try to reboot it like they did Eastern, starting over with just 9th grade.[/quote]
