[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If fcps has the money, why not just custom build a school that actually serves what they know fcps needs, instead of renovating a school that will take another few years. let the kaa school stay open. no need to renovate, keeps a neat community in the area. maybe listen to the deal the alumni tried so that there is no renovation needed and as the previous poster said maybe then even expand the school to open up to the wider community.  your fc kid can be swimming in this pool this august if kaa was allowed to stay open[/quote]

FCPS did not shut down KAA. The Saudi Government did. This is not a FCPS decision. FCPS is buying the building that the Saudi Government put up for sale.

And the KAA families have known this was happening since February. There is another privatre school, Sandy Springs Friendship School, I probably have the name wrong, that was closed due to financial mishandling by the board of governors. The families and alumni raised enough money to keep the school open in under two weeks. Who knows how long it will stay open but if the KAA families wanted tom they had the time to try and raise the money. Or they could have offered to pay increased tuition.
