[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never seen a DC school of any kind that didn't have brand-new everything. Coming from a different city, it's a real shock how nice everything is. Now, many of those school lack actual, practical resources. Some even lack playgrounds. But the physical facilities are immaculate. [/quote]

Leave Ward 3 please.  Have you seen Garrison?  Have you seen any of the schools in Ward 7 or 8?[/quote]

No really, you and PP should stay in ward 3 and take a long dispassionate looks at the elementary school facilities in Ward 3.   There is a true range, from brand new (Janney, Stoddert) to dank crumbling Soviet space (Murch, Eaton, Lafayette)

This is a discrediting exaggeration. Lafayette, for example, is alive with the energy of bright kids. The entry (when I saw it 18 months ago) is BREATHTAKING compared to my so-so renovated school. Come on. [/quote]

The inside leaves much to be desired, especially for the amount of kids it serves-it is the biggest public elementary, yes, bigger than Janney, and has an open floorpan-how does that work with 700 kids? That renovation has been a long time coming! [/quote]
